Re: early 63 2-bar knock offs

I think quite a few sets exist. There was a guy at Bloomington years ago who had several "flats" of them. ( Just spinners. )

You don't see them pop up often, but I've seen a guy who wanted 10K for a set and I remember a couple sets sold at Bob McDorman's auction last year for MUCH less. ( Just spinners )

I can't say for certain, but these spinners, or one very similar was also used on Corvair. Correct me if I'm wrong on this.

That 2-bar spinner was also used on the GM accessory wire wheels for the Corvair that were supplied by Dayton Wire Wheel.

I saw a large pallet of repro 2 bar spinners in the late '80's. They were on their way to be metal finished and chrome plated. Caveat Emptor

Even simpler is the fact that the reason the Corvair wire EXISTED was because Dayton caught K-H using Datyon's patented "gear drive" method of attaching. Kind of part of the "settlement".

Hi Todd are you asking about gear drive wheels or pin drive wheels? (your asking early) If your talking pin drive, I cant help on the number of sets, but the two bars alone are worth 500 to 1000 each without the adapters, pays to buy them with the wheels because you can get a set with 4 wheels for around 7000. Gear Drive is a different story. Phil 8063
