If you get those original wheels you might contact Marvic wheels in Italy to see if they could make more using them as a sample. I assume they are a cast wheel. They make the GR4 wheels for the Stratos and have a good reputation.
So if I'm able to get or have made 13" wheels I will need to change to rear inboard brakes. Anyone out there know how to do this?
Be sure to look into tire availability before you put down big money on custom wheels. Many tire manufacturers do not even make 13" tires any more and it could become very difficult to get tires.
You're correct about that. That's one reason I've considered doing 15" wheels with the same design. Much more tire possibilities. Currently 13" tires you have about 2 choices with both being track tires only b
The TB15's are fine on the road. Run them on my Stratos.

Jon, you need a racing engineering firm to do the switch over, designing new parts from scratch and a lot of $ for a car that might not be worth the investment. You will need to cast new uprights, new brake discs, hats, calipers, half shafts, etc... Plus, inboard brakes get really hot, are a pain to maintain... I am aware of your seeking purity and originality, but.... is it really worth it? Regards, Alberto
What kind of transmission are you going to mate to your engine? That might help steer your rear brake search.
