The Pedrini wheels on my '71 are looking a little worse for wear; but I don't know what an original one looked like. Where were they polished, and what parts were left dull? Anybody have a picture of a good one, and any ideas on cleaning them up?
Thanks, Mike |

They were never polished in any area. And, they don't polish well without hurting the intehrity of the wheel. Why polish anyway? Porsches of that era never has polished wheels.
They are soft, so if you want to refinish have them bead blasted & (I would suggest) have the anodized. |
