Can anyone identify these wire wheels?
I'm in the process of restoring two of Bill Jorgensons resin Novi's. These were the wheels ant tires that came with the kit. 3 of the 4 were fine but this one had old epoxy within the spokes. I was able to remove the epoxy but really bent up the spokes. since it wasn't usable I disassembled it thinking it might be a SE Finecast. sadly it wasn't. the photo-etched lip actually went into the tires groove. Not shown is a metal center which is still stuck on the wire axle.
Bottom line, who made these and are they still in business, does anyone have an extra for sale?, etc.
