Can anybody tell me the original steel wheel width and backspace for a 1965 V8 B body with 7.35X14 tires?

tire

wheels for that would be a 14 x 5
7.50 tires would have been on 14 x 5.5 or 7.75

this from the 65 parts book AND looking at a mint spare 7.35 tire I have.

Great. Is there any way to get the backspace measurement from that wheel?

back space

3.5" should be backspace measurement.
