Dual purpose, the dog gets hungry, you can pop it off and feed the dog! Lol! That car needs torque thrusts!

In my defense, I was running poverty caps long before they were trendy…

I’d like to put a set of W23 “Recall” wheels on it, but they’re almost impossible to find. Until then I’ll stick with what I’ve got…

The company that was reproducing the W23 recall wheels went out of business if I remember correctly. Original factory recall wheels are very expensive. The guy Dan from Washington state who had the three 440 Six barrel 70 Fury GT cars had a set of them for sale. I don't know if he still has them. He is on Moparts regularly.

My friend has them on two of his cars.

They were reproduced and sold by Year One and Classic Industries at one time. Knocked the crap out of the price of originals at the time.

About 25 years ago, I discovered a set painted black on a local old Econoline van. A friend of mine traded another set of steel rims and better tires for them. Under the spare tire cover was a fifth Recall Wheel. After my friend removed the black paint, the rims were in really nice shape, the paint protecting the rims. It turned out the guy's uncle worked at the factory that produced them. After Chrysler cancelled the order, quite a few sets rolled out the back door before the company could scrap the rest of their inventory.

Now that's getting your bling on RC! As Kid Rock says "four folks on a hundred spokes"!

My other friend already wants to "borrow " them! I believe they were made by Specialty Wheels,which if I remember correctly burned down and the owner died,possibly by suicide. I hope I am remembering the right company.
