These need to be restored .
Does anybody know the original colour they used on these rims?


Thanks guys,

I think the company Eastwood in the usa have a colour that comes in aerosols that is close..might be called "detail grey" I'm sure some of the us cal-look guru's might be able to confirm this...

hope this helps

As long ago as all magnesium Torque Thrusts were made, I don't believe the ever were painted when new.
IMO, Glass bead blast them, the patina of natural mag, with the outer rims polished will provde a very attractive appearance.
I read up on and have used a protectant, GIBBS Penetrant on the mag parts on my car with outstanding success.

Your new wheels have a real story to tell, given the time it had to take for the red paint to wear away as it did. Wonder what is the story of their being painted that way? Do you know?
Nice find!
