   Certainly not a conventional cooling system, looks all wrong. Both in and out on the top.

   I, too, like the wheels. What would I call them as I go on the hunt?

   Dave, in response to Boomer’s question, those are “aluminum slot rims”, right? I remember my 48 CJ2A from Globe had them. I traded them to a 4×4 place in Clarksdale AZ. I think their name was All Auto, if that helps.

   Boomer, somehow I missed that comment. They are commonly called cast aluminum slot wheels.

   I read that Kelsey Hayes made some factory original slots for AMC, but they are hard to find. Most of the ones you’ll encounter are likely aftermarket rims made by Ansen, American Racing, or other manufacturers.

   American Racing still sells news ones: http://www.americanracingwheelsinfo.com/American_Racing_Ansen_Sprint_Slot_Mag.htm

   This place that I pass by regularly in Ellensburg, Washington, that has used rims. I’ve never been inside:

   No problem Boomer. Here’s a second link that might have rims:

    The radiator is from an FC150 as well as the reservoir and air horn on the carb.
