Looks like at least $1,000 worth? Is it a real RT Project?

Could it be a real RT?  I see a fender tag.  The 3 speed wiper motor is there, wiper arms can be pretty spendy so that also probably means the wiper linkage is in there.  Bucket seats and a lot of trim.  Looks like an automatic with drums all around.  Could that spare be a 450 wheel?  That alone could be worth the $1,000.  If I was closer I would go look at it.

Definitely not.
Easy spot is the 4 nubs that hold on the poverty cap.  450s always had 1 of the nubs directly across from the valve stem.

For starters none of the rims are "450's"....I've never heard that "nub idea" before :rubeyes:

Boy, knowing that will make it lot easier to spot 450 wheels!  That was news to me.   :twothumbsup:  Thanks!

I'm not saying FC7 is wrong, but I would question that little detail.....I can't see them worrying about that little detail when assembling the rims  :huh:

If I was even somewhat close I would go look at it.  The guy obviously wants it gone.  I bet $500 gets you all of it and there looks to be some decent stuff there.  And there's a fender tag, so you get to see what it really was without having to guess.  I would be after the parts, unless it was a car worth saving.   :huh:  But aren't they all worth saving?       :notsure:

Just did a Google search and couldn't find a 450 wheel where the valve stem isn't lined up with the nub :unbelievable: :worship: :clapping:

Real deal RT, but  :o  that's a hard to read tag.

Sure is, the photo he sent was impossible to make out characters. Had him read first line. Sometimes flipping it over helps.

I'm sure someone on here is close to there.  That's a good deal. Too bad the tag is hard to read.
