catpack68 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Is there an resin aftermarket source or a older kit that might have had these wheels as a option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodent Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Several years of MPC full-size 60s-70s Chevys had something similar. The center caps are blank though. Not sure what wheel they were trying to simulate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're in some MPC Mopar annuals from about '68/'69 BUT, I think they're about as close to Sharks as you're gonna get short of having them custom printed. BTW, the wheels in the MPC late '60s Impalas, though looking the same strait on, are actually dished, not raised like the Sharks and Cragars. The ones in the '70s Impalas were actually Cragar S/S.

Can-Con Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 These are from Scenes Unlimited. They're copies of the Cragar G/Ts from the MPC Mopar kits I mentioned above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but, in scale, they are pretty close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Can-Con Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Just now, Daddyfink said: I know, but, in scale, they are pretty close. I agree ,, Like I said, Probably the closest he'll get without having a set of Sharks custom printed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catpack68 Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 Thanks for the info guys.I think the ones in the 1st issue Monogram GT-350 kit are closer to what I need.I didn’t realize Scenes Unlimited made resin Crager G/T wheels.I actually need them for another build.Thanks again.
