Eleanor Quiz

NitroStanggirl · 11-02-2002, 07:44 PM

There were TWO different brands of wheels used on Eleanor in Gone in 60 Seconds. (I didn't know this until now). Who can name them? Brands are acceptable but the brand and model are always better. Also if anyone knows the sizes on both I would like to know myself. I know they used a 17 on one, but I don't know if the second was a 17 also.

Winner will be awarded respect and recognition!!!

Team III wheels makes some.

Halibrand are the original Shelby wheels.

I think it uses GT-40 wheels, like the ones that came on Shelby Cobras.

There was another one though

Is this the other one? It's an Edelbrock 454.

It probably would have been a good idea if people had submitted answers in private huh!
