[Chrysler300] Motor Wheel

[JettLarry@xxxxxxx]

Little story in recent Hemmings re:  Motor Wheel Co (the company that made our wire wheels).  Quote:  Motor Wheel  Corporation of Lansing, MI, was one of the nation's most prolific wheel manufacturers.  Vying for contracts with Detroit's factories saw the company making a full third of America's production-car wheels as early as 1934.  Thirty years later, Motor Wheel had become a subsidiary of Goodyear Tire and Rubber.  It was during Goodyear's ownership that Motor Wheel created an enduring classic--the Magnum 500--for the showroom set. Unquote.  Just found it interesting that the Magnum 500's on my 66 rag might have been made or licensed by Motor Wheel. (Not Kelsey-Hayes!!)
