2-4. Jo-Han Eldorado, '74-'78. 2 & 3 are promo/snap kit; 3 is glue kit.

5. Correct - Jo-Han '63-'64 Cadillac.

6. Jo-Han '66-'67 Cadillac - maybe also '65.

7. Jo-Han '61 Cadillac Fleetwood.

8. Jo-Han '58-'59 Cadillac Fleetwood.

Last two look like MPC Chevette.

Yes, the last two are MPC Chevette.

Thanks, all. I'll see if I can nail down which kit that 4-slot wheel is from. The Crazy Horse Pinto F/C and Tuff Truk both seems like good possibilities.

AMT '57 T-bird.

The Eagle wheels re-appeared on the Corvette and VW Zingers.  

Were either of them ever molded in green?

Just acquired a rear wheel and tire from a vintage Zinger molded in yellow, and the six spoke wheel is a match for the lime green wheel I inquired about earlier:

I want to say this wheels is from an AMT...Impala, maybe? '63? .625" O.D. at the lip, fit the AMT red/bluewall tires, like so:

'63 Impala annual had Halibrand wheels, similar to those in one of the AMT wheel/tire packs.  Those are Hands wheels, I believe those were in one or both of the '63 Corvette annual kits.

They're also in the AMT custom and competition parts pack that was issued in the AMT/Ertl days in the blue box and the XR6/27 T Pheaton kit.

The parts pack wheels are 4 lug.

Ah, I didn't notice that.

Those "Hand" wheels are also in the MPC 57 Chevy gasser. Same as yours? Not sure!!

[Mark]

The MPC wheels are six-slot Cragars, one of those styles they didn't make very long.

Your right Mark, but they have 8 slots. NOT the same as your wheel above.

Thanks, Steve. Armed with that info, here's the other topic in which the Hands wheels were discussed:
