70's wheels identification

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this forum and happy to be here.

I have recently inherited a 1976 Dodge D100 slant 6 from my father. It has been in the family since it was purchased new by my grandfather.

1976 Dodge D100

It has been maintained, undergone engine and transmission rebuild, poorly repainted... A few years have now gone by and it needs a lot of TLC!

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of rims I have on the truck, please?

I don't believe I have ever seen wheels like that in anything else, buy I'm sure they exist somewhere

Thank you for your help!
Looking forward to hearing from you!

They look like ET wheels that have been painted.

Thank you for your help!

I didn't see my set of wheels yet, but will keep looking. It sure helps!

As for the color, unfortunately, it's as if they oxidized or something, a good deep cleaning is really needed. A while back, I even had leak issues that necessitates grinding / polishing the inside of the rim for the tire to seat properly.

In your opinion are they worth a full restore or should I find something else?

If you find anymore information, I'm all ears.

Thank you again!

Do you know where I could find the value of these wheels and know if they are worth restoring? Thank you!
