Does anyone make new wire wheels for the 33/34 Ford ?
Iv seen new wheels almost identical to the stock 33 ford wheel. I think wheelvintiques does them is different sizes.
Is that the closes thing one can get to new wheels ?

I don't think anyone reproduces the 17 inch wheels but with all of the cars becoming street rods there is a large supply of good wheels at a reasonable cost in the US. I assume you car would use the same wheel as the US built but THAT IS AN ASSUMPTION AND I AM NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT 1933 LHD CARS. Shipping is another problem. I recently sold to a person from New Zealand. He had a shipping company that collected parts for him in Los Angeles and, I assume, shipped when the container was full. The company he used was Main Freight, the contact he used was Annie Stewart, 562 295-1350. I don't know if this service was based on a personal friendship or it was something they did on a regular basis. From my end everything went great and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again.
