Yep. I was trying to get a set and never did. I only had teenager money back then. You need to show off your brakes, man. Ponies are the right wheel to hide ugly rear drums, but not a nice shiny set of disc brakes.

Ponies are the right wheel to hide ugly rear drums, but not a nice shiny set of disc brakes.My '88 came with it's original 10-holes. Back in the 90's, 5-lug swaps were not common so everyone wanted the pony wheels. I remember seeing VERY clean sets selling for $600+. I think I ended up paying $400 or so for my set. I loved the look. I've often debated tracking down a set of 5-lug 17" versions and putting them on for that OEM look.

You really have me thinking about the hose reel idea. With 4 wheels I could use one as an air hose reel in my garage and use the others as water hose holders around the house..... I also have spare spindles and such that I could use to rig them up. Not sure what the girl would think about this idea, but she's a mustang girl so she might go for it. I would want them to look nice and be fully functional. hmmmmmmmmmm
I still have yet to do it. I've got the wheel cleaned up and scotchbrited. Just need to get some argent paint and clearcoat to restore it, and a nice centercap. Then just an issue of mounting it up. Unsure if i'm going to actually make it spin or just mount the wheel on the wall and loop the hose around. Either way, it's likely a winter project now as spring is here and I want to be outside working on the yard/house or driving the Mustang
Seems to me that would be a spring project so you could wrap your hose around it now that you'll be using it.
Hose already hanging on a generic hanger right now. No real need for it.
That’s what I was thinking.It’s a v6 single mom special, not sad about it
Looks like an insurance claim to me.
On the other hand:
What kind of ahole leaves his Mustang parked where it can be eaten by a lava flow moving 2 miles per hour?
Stoners
WTH is R2D2 doing standing beside the mustang?
