Recent indication of pricing.
Good looking HQ pattern 15x10s Look to have had fairly recent restoration.
Late cheviot type with thick looking hubs.
Ebay Winning bid: AU $1,775.00
It wouild seem the market is still a bit off.
I got 2K for a pair of A9X internal scalloped type about ten months ago. They were freshly restored.

Slotted or elongated wheel nut holes are illegal in Australia.

They are also generally unsafe, which is worse.

Hotwires are quite safe..
It's the nut behind the wheel that's usually the problem !

Just found this info !
The close cross hatched "Hotwire" style mags that have been pictured so far are in fact:
WIREMAN mags made in Japan for the Appliance mag wheel Company in America in the late 70's/ early 80's
