So I just picked up a A stamp car, and it had these wheels on it. I believe they are tecnacraft? If not please let me know, but if they are my question is were they originally sold with the aluminum style knock off shown in the picture? Also, does anyone know off the top of their head what the date range of these wheels are? I would like to clean them up and use them on a period correct build.
Thanks for any info.

Cool wheels... Tecnacraft started making the twin spoke wheels in 1988. They also introduced their Super Light wheels (25% lighter, available as a twin spoke) in 1988 as well. Company sold in 1994 and was out of business by the end of 1996.

Thanks, and thanks for the info. I had to put my poker face on when the car walked through the door with those wheels on it, as I haven't seen those specific wheels myself in person up until that point.
with some cleaning/ light polishing I should be able to get them back to looking almost new.
