Re: Spoked....
It seems like Ford finally started to apply a wood finish around a year before they changed over to welded spoke wire wheels. Most were black for a good portion of model T production. The paint generally held up better for normal use & abuse for the roads they had at the time. Folks that store their cars well and drive them in good weather shouldn't have a problem with the wheel finish. They should have a good clear coat after staining just to preserve the wood in case they ever get wet.
