Maybe the Fenton decal is a giveaway, but I sure don't remember them making those wheels. I mostly remember chrome slots and black spoke mags from them.
For trivia points, anyone remember the two other "brothers" to the Cragar SS while used the same style?
During this era I was racing a 340 Duster with that stupid 4" bolt circle so I was limited to Ansen aluminum slots unless I wanted to redrill the hubs/axles. I do have to admit that Mopar's craziness saved my wheels, though. One morning I came out to my car to discover two wheels on the same side and three twisted off lugs between them.
Good thing the thieves weren't smart enough to know about left handed threads.

one brother was the Fenton Super Sharks. I got them when I bought my first car, a 1969 GTO.
