• Which 1/8 Monogram kits had the reverse steel wheels with the tasty detail?
  • Might have been the Big Drag, but I seem to recall none of the kits with those wheels had more than two. They were available separately in pairs also *NM*
  • What do you mean by "tasty details"? *NM*
    • Being a touch OCD for these things, tasty details means...
  • The Big T, the Big Rod, the Big Tub, and the Big Drag each had two of the reversed steelies. The steelies were chromed in all but the Big T. *NM*
    • There was also a Parts Pack that had two chromed steelies and two chromed 5-spokes. *NM*
      • Oops, the Big T had 4 of the steelies, unchromed. *NM*
    • Didn't the last issue of the Big Tub, orange car on the box from maybe 15yrs ago have a set of steelies?. *NM*
      • Yes, the last issue of the Big T and Big Tub each had a set of four of the reversed steelies. Not sure if they were from the original molds or retooled. *NM*
  • The last re-issue Big Deuce with the flathead has 4 steelies, not chrome, mine are yellow. Jim Pelosi sells those. He's on Facebook. I've ordered a few sets from him, great service! *NM*
    • Yes, they were indeed steelies but of the '40 Ford design not at all like the Big T and others that were GM type wheels with reversed rims. *NM*
