Tracy, The correct wheel for 63/64 is the bottom picture. Both wheels are 15x5 1/2" wide and the top picture shows the 65/66 wheel with the back clearance for the disc brake caliper. The inner spider is spot welded to the outer rim on both style wheels and later service replacements of the 65/66 wheel have the spider rivited to the rim. Hope this helps you out.

I appreciate the responce Tim,

I recieved a first class education on these wheels by #14 on cold MA evening earlier this year. This is one aspect that my feeble brain failed to grasp I guess.

I've always heard 63/64 wheels will not fit a 65/66/67 because of disk brake interference. Now I understand what this is all about.
