I think that was just the 3 spoke ones...they are the same spokes as the ones pictured by bill, except only 3 of them per wheel :o...not a sturdy design
If it works good, it looks good...

 Bill check for a chrome oil tank and wiring box,,,motormounts are a bit dogbone shaped about 8 inches long.
And a whack of springs and shafts for the rear shocks and two big nuts..look like semi wheel nuts..

It's coming Bill. I have been porting 5 heads, disassembling that auto engine (some problems with that), working full time, bringing parts to balance shops, machine shops, UPS and USPS, ordering parts, answering PM's and emails and working a second job.........and then trying to figure out how to use all my free time....
 I'm bringing that head to the machine shop to have it vacuum tested this Saturday.
