Found these on C list.
Sun Bug Rims (http://southjersey.craigslist.org/pts/988778527.html)
They are nice, but I have never seen a Sun Bug with them on it not/sure, Have you Yucel ??? ??
(hope I spelled it correctly)
Not sure about "Sun Bugs" but I think they are called "Phone dial rims"
Don't know what they are from but I've never seen them on a Sun Bug.

They are called Turtle Back Rims. They were not made by VW! And they are supposed to be black

They where made by Superior Industries in Van Nuys in the late early-mid 70's
BTW- they are worth about $300 but they are missing the center caps. From what I understand, the caps are very rare and will usually bring in twice the price.
You can use empi center caps. They fit
phone dials are the porsche wheels, and are five lug not four, these are weird.

Oh...Git down with
your bad self, John. You just let 'em go...and go... and BAM!
It was like the scarecrow in the Wizzard of Oz. "The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side."
It pays to know vintage.
I know John. He is vintage.
John is vintage alright... historic and antique are also words that come to mind I1t
