Correct rims for a 76 Cobra would have been the steel ralley wheels (standard) or the silver aluminum slot rims (optional).

Thanks guys that helps alot!! so the steel styled wheels are similar to the ones from the 60s right?? just 4 bolt pattern and only 4 spokes not 5, and with the cobra centers correct?? just curious cuz i have the chance to pick some up of either set but not sure which ones came on my car or not... so if there is a way of determining this that would help greatly also! thanks!

History 999 report should indicate if equipped with aluminum wheels.

Slots would be generally considered more desirable (if any 13" could be called desirable).

Report of how the car was originally equipped as shipped.

You'll need the VIN handy, and they'll mail it to you (some have had it faxed).

Here's a sample:

Here's their contact info:
Ford Customer Relationship Center
P.O. Box 6248
Dearborn, MI 48126


Phone: 800-392-3673
800-232-5952 (TDD for the Hearing Impaired)

Hours of Operation:
8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. ET. (Monday-Friday)
9:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. ET. (Saturday)

I also once used this link:

http://www.ford.com/en/links/General/www_customersaskford_com/Ask+Kate+Ford.htm


There have been reports of info that was incorrect (note the lack of clear distinction on the '78 about CBII/KC), but you have to bear in mind that this is being decoded from 25-30 year old IBM punchcard data.

Until Dale Rabe can meet the demand for copies of the original invoices in a timely fashion, this is about as good as it's going to get for authentication.
