    I've looked around for original 13" Dino 206 SP with not much luck. Anyone know anyone who can make custom aluminum wheels per the original design??

    Jon,

    I saw an episode of Wheeler Dealers when they were set up in Huntington Beach and went to, I think MHT for a custom designed one off set of billet wheels. I "think" that's also where I heard Chip Foose goes. In any case, I sent an email to one of my contacts, Rod Emory to see what sources he recommends.

    Update: The guy who did wheels for Foose and some machine work for Wheeler Dealers is Mike Curtis, formally at Boyd's. He looks like he's located right next to you! In fact, I think you could walk there! 1/2 a mile away! He might be a good resource.

    Evod made the wheels for my 57 Brougham. Turned out nice in the end but was a very stressful process.

    Jon,

    I've emailed you more options. My friend Bud Bennett, owner of RM Motorsport (no association with RM Auctions) http://rmmotorsports.com recommends M&A Castings in Michigan. He says they've made 100's of racing wheels for him. Bud restores and races vintage race cars. He restored one of the Tyrell 6-wheelers including making new wheels and tires. Bud is the best of the best from Can-Am to F1 to 962. Hope this helps.
