I like them. Kind of depends on your view. They were common aftermarket rims, I believe. My '76 Datsun had them, as well as the General Lee, and the A-team van. I'm sure there are many more examples, but mostly, I think it comes down to personal opinion. I think they looks good on the older truck. Might or might not look so good on a bump or dent. I think I'd have to see it, but I like them.

That's a good deal, look's like it doesn't hardly need much body work or nothin'...
Just drop in a engine of your choice, and a 4-speed...
