Rally Wheel Restoration

[Chris F.]

I have been restoring the Rally Wheels on my '72 to original condition, this is just one of my projects to hopefully get my car to Top Flight in the not too distant future.
I have paid particular attention to the spare wheel which is the one judged and I note from the Technical Information & Judging Guide that a balance weight on original wheels seems to have been made by Micro.
Could a fellow member please advise where I may be able to find one in 2oz, bearing in mind I live down under in Tasmania.

Regards,
Chris

Re: Rally Wheel Restoration

There was (may still be) and ad in last several issues of The Driveline for early C3 wheel weights. I am not sure which size(s) or brands may be available.

Keep in mind MICRO was NOT the only supplier of wheel weights. Another story in The Restorer (going back to my term as editor) identified six of seven wheel weight suppliers for wheel weights during the midyears and early C3s. You might want to look up that story in your collection of Restorers.
