1954 Ford F-350 Rims???

Posted by jcrvt on August 19, 2009 at 10:23:26 from (72.92.149.201):

Hello. Hoping someone can help me. Looking at a '54 1 ton (F350) with dual rear wheels. (First vintage project) Plan to use it as a mobile platform for our farmers market setup. Trying to figure out the widow-maker rim issue on this rig. Has 6 lug 7.50 - 16LT tube-type tires mounted all around. Are these split rim? Are these original? Solid rim replacements available???

I'm more that 3 hrs away (1-way) and the owner is on the road nearly full-time, so it's hard to get specifics. Spent a lot of time online trying to research the problem. Also trying to figure if this is a project we can afford. Body is in good shape (Longbeach build) and motor (original 239 CID) seems strong. 4 spd syn transmission. Would only be a summer driver to farmers markets, occasional parade, etc. Will have lots more questions, probably before deciding and CERTAINLY after, if we do go forward. Thanks in advance for any help/thoughts!!!
