What wheels are these?

Post by ACTstanglover »

Hi all, long time no hear. I have these old wheels off my 65 fastback but not sure what they are. I want to sell them. Can anyone enlighten me to what these wheels are?
Thanks

Thank you. Any idea what they might be worth, they are only 14 inch wheels with good tread.

They look more like GT Option 52 wheels than torque thrusts to me. Note the pointed spoke vs smooth spokes on torque thrusts.

Have they got anything cast into the back? Delta made a similar wheel back in the day, but hard to know without looking for old catalogue images.

If they are a 14" they could be an Aussie Auger Hustler

Early torque thrust wheels were like that. Shaunp, the wheels were off his 65 so assume they were on it ex USA.

My Aunger wheels have quite rounded spokes.
