Re: 1969 GMC.. right off the farm

I also spent some time refinishing the 15x8 steel wheels. They were pretty scared up from the trim rings, so I had to do quite a bit of sanding to get them smooth. Used a variety of different sandpaper grits and some stripping pads. Then rustoleum auto primer, 'antique white' gloss paint, and then a crystal clear top coat.

I grabbed some cheap chrome lug nuts from Amazon for now, I would really like to do the 6 lug spider caps one day or bullet caps.

I know push in caps would not work on the rear wheels without some grinding, as these wheels are hubcentric and are pretty much line on line with the rear axle hubs
