I had to buy the AMC centers as I could not find the Mopar versions for my wagon. Looks ok.

Starting at $575 and being blasted and primed, not chromed... way too much IMO.
$60+change to get those centers to my door would be a win if I needed them... I don't, and even have one to donate to a good cause due to my compulsive spending on anything under $10 that is close to a Formal part...

Paid just under $400 incl shipping... just need to be patient, and jump fast when you see them...

Doba likely owes me a full ration of **** for this... I am hoarding wheels too...
 
Very nice looking wheel though

This is the second set of these wheels that have been blasted and painted. Seems to me that they are pretty much worthless unless you're going to put the appliques over them like some of the late Formals. Even then, they can't be worth very much.

Or am I missing something and some cars had Road Wheels that weren't chromed?

I have never seen them in the wild, but it appears (from the SFGT thread) that they did come without chrome.
 
The above wheels would be the perfect Guinea Pigs to try the Chrome Wash n Rinse technique on
 
I have some plastic stuff, I would be interested in how well this holds up...
