I know these aren’t AMT or pre-‘65, but I always thought it was weird that the custom wheels in the MPC ‘69 and ‘70 Chargers were Pontiac 8 lugs…

AMTrivia: In pre-65 kits, what 'custom' parts were really re-purposed OE? Seems like it was more than we knew as kids

…and the ones in the ‘75 and ‘76 Dart Sports were basically Pontiac Honeycomb wheels…

Second issue and Hillbilly Hauler 34 Ford pickups use 64 Corvette hubcaps. *NM*

MPC did a little bit of that. The Car Craft Dream Rod wheels (T-Bird wires) later appeared in the Magnum GTII kit *NM*
Lots of little stuff mostly, sometimes you don't realize it until you see the parts in their "home setting"...
AMT's 1940 Ford Coupe has/had 66 Toronado wheel centres or hubcaps as custom parts. *NM*
