Vintage Ansen "knock-off" Wheels

**rich18p** · 10-02-2009, 11:36 AM

Hello All,

I inherited a set of 4 aluminum wheels that I would like to find out more info on. More importantly if they are worth anything to anyone. They are true knock-off aluminum wheels made by Ansen Auto Eng. They have the emblem"AAE" in the center of the knock-off. The information on the back of the wheel reads:

ANSEN AUTO ENG
GARDENA CALIFORNIA
W614-R
SER NO 010 5E25

If anyone knows the history of these wheels please let me know. It would be much appreciated.

Thank You,
Rich

I have an Ansen catalogue from the middle 1960s and do not find anything on a "True Knock Off" as later on most were common aluminum bolted on to the five hub studs. I got six for my old 1960 Ranchero and get offers every week for them at about $100 each.
