Got A 3 Spoke Brushed Finish Metal Sport Wheel From A Friend But Its An Unusual Color. I Would Call It Beige Or A Light Fawn Color. It Has The Brushed Finish Bowtie Chevy Horn Cap On It.the Rim Has The Metal Band Showing Between The Factory Colored Vinyl.this Was On His 70 Chevelle When He Got It But It Had A Black Leather Wrap Over The Original Beige Colored Wheel.

Can't Find Any Info On This Although I Think Maybe Have Seen Green & Red Ones ?

Do I Have Something Rare Or Could It Possibly Be From Another Gm A Body - Buick, Olds Or Pontiac ?

Anyone, Please Chime In

Thanks

Difficult to tell without a pic but it sounds like it. :yes: The different centercaps were interchangable.

its the optional 3 spoke wheel. i have two aftermarket wheels one on a 70 el camino and one on a 70 monte. the org 3 spoke wheels could come painted to match the interior i believe i know the after market ones only come in black.

The optional 3-spoke wheel on 70 Chevelles only came in black. The colored wheels were not painted to match, but rather molded in those colors. And they were installed in later-model Buick Skylarks, etc.
