Question on Hands wheels.  Any good suggestions on how to break loose the
spinner if it seems to be stuck - without doing any damage?  I have 3
original Hands 13x5.5 wheels - I'm looking for number 4 if anyone has one
they would be willing to part with.  Rick?

I'd like to put them on my '64 Spyder if I could make up a full set of
them.  Many years ago, I tried the Spyder with 3 wheels on the PA Turnpike
for a brief time, and didn't like the performance at all :-)

The 14x7 rims are another aftermarket rim patterned after the Hands rims. 
Dan Gurney offered this style of rim in a variety of sizes and offsets.
The original Hands pattern can easily be seperated from the later versions
by the cast hub that the spinner attaches to.  Later copies just use
center caps.... I have original Hands in 13x5.5 and other Manfactured in
13x5.5, 14x5.5, 14x7, and 15x5.5.   They are my favorite style of rim for
the vair.....
