Looks like me. I have been thinking of stripping the paint off of mine.

Somebody was telling me something about early Rivieras that were flat aross the face and didn't have the raised "pad' in the center of each spoke (usually the chrome spot).

Not sure about the form V thing, but I have a set of both old and new rivieras...

I like the old ones better, less cluttered.

The pictures are from an August 1971 article in "Boys' Life" magazine. The front cover of the issue has a picture of the Jacques Duval Sunoco 914-6 GT that finished 7th overall in the 1971 Daytona 24 Hours (now owned by Garry Wigglesworth). Also in the article there are pictures of the Ralph Meaney 914-6 GT's and the 59 914-6 GT of Gregg and Haywood.
