Alternate rims for Imperials, was Re: IML: IML - DIGEST POSTING

["Phil Patterson" <hilljack7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Tristan, I have a 92 Dodge van with the special factory mag wheels.
Since I have the hub off of my 68 Imp at the moment, it shouldn't be hard to
check the bolt pattern. It looks pretty close, supposed to be the same as
the Ford with the same pattern. Finally, I kind of like the wheels on my
van, I may keep them and make Imperial caps for them, just for grins. If the
weather holds up, I'll take some pics tomorrow if things work out on a test
fitting.
