Paul, I wish you had posted this last week-I just ordered a 14" Nardi from Crowder (ebay).
Paul, if you sell your Nardi, consider getting one of Mike Lempert's wheels. His smallest diameter is 14.5" and he can do just about any combination of spoke design, diameter, wood type, and finish that you want for a price about the same as a Nardi. Ii have the downslant design (a Les Leston clone) that doesn't block the guages like the Nardi did, and it is much less slippery.

Timing is everything, and then you die.
Lane, ive been thinking about getting in touch with your guy. I would need to sell the Nardi in order to purchase a wheel from him leaving my car undrivable for a period of time. I am looking for a quick trade for now.

Pricing out wheels and came across this:

very cool. I actually thought the photgraph was bad at first... Would certainly help with getting in and out of these cars while allowing for the larger diameter.

I can check and see if he has a loaner. He does that sometimes if it'll be a while before the wheel is ready.
Copy that.
Lane,
I was just browsing his website. Great looking wheels, there are a couple there id be interested in. That being said... purchasing a wheel really isnt in the cards. Main reason being there is an entire project I have been waiting to tackle associated with my "wheel of choice". Id liek to swap out my steering column for that of an older beetle so that I eliminate the large black steering wheel boss and utilize something much closer to the original. I also would like the large diameter bolt pattern around the horn ring. I would need to purchase the older style turn signal switch and relocate the brights switch to the floor pan. Not so simple, unless someone tells me otherwise.
For now, If I can even trade for a larger diameter I will. We will see how the summer goes. Maybe its a project i can better get into in several months. Lets talk at Carlisle.
