WTB 16" Wheel for 1934 Desoto Airflow

Hi
I have a very nice mostly original 1934 Desoto Airflow and need to locate one good spare wheel. I will be going to Hershey if anyone has one and can help me out here.

Thank you
GaryH

Gary, Do you know if the '34 Desoto Airflow uses the same wheel as the '34 Chrysler Airflow?

Ray,
The wheels that fit the Chrysler Airflow have a different stud pattern than the ones off the Desoto Airflow and further more the Chrysler rim width is larger than the Desoto.

Thanks John,

I had always assumed the Chrysler wheel was bigger.
Here is a picture of the car

You might try Russell Parker, a well known Airflow guy in Phoenix, Arizona, I believe.

Gary,
The SE looks absolutely magic.
It is really good to see one of these Coupe as I only know of one here in Australia and it is being turned into a hot rod.
Recently I saw an SG Coupe that was imported into Australia as a right hand drive car and I believe has since been sold to a guy in New Zealand.
I don't believe that their are any S2 Coupes out here at all.
Good luck.
Cheers
