Excellent topic Pete.
May I suggest someone post a topic on the 67 steel wheels.  My limited experience is that the vent slots are shaped differently.

I heard that the Shelby 1968 wheels are the  C8AZ-1007-B part number and the wheels were marked with a C8AA number, is that true because I have never seen them with this number

Paper stick on labels were pretty typical but didn't last long/hold up well

Ok good to know. If there are more infos about steel wheels, lets go. All in one thread should help.

I believe the 1967 wheels have three slots and three nubs in the center. Of course, date codes

The 67 steel wheels are four slots with three nubs, see photos posted above.

I have a set of wheels that have 66 stamped on the hub, identical to the 67s pictured, with the KW and month stamp...those still have 4 slots and 3 knubs. not sure i have ever seen a wheel with 3 slots.

Actually it is better for others searching in the future as a stand alone thread. I will ask moderator to split it out.

Maybe 3 was the nubs, does that work?
