Young American question

[noname]

I have noticed on the Young American  aa/fuel dragster kit that one front wheel is different than the other. The spokes are partially filled in.  Does anybody know the idea behind this? Was this common?

Also, I see from another thread that the Herb Deeks PE wire wheels are a little small for these tires. Does anybody know of any aftermarket wire wheels that would work?

The left wheel that was partially filled in was typical for the time. The tire were so small that they didn't always trip the finish line lights. So they added the extra metal. Also many had the front wheels offset. The left was further forward than the right.

I heard Replicas & Miniatures was going to re-release theirs later this year.

Cool! Thanks for that Len.
