Re: Just to make sure...

The Hayes wheels on my car have a makers mark with a patent date on the inside of the steel fellow. You have to remove the rim to see it. If I remember correctly it was stamped close to the hole for the valve stem. Hope this helps.

Re: Check your wheels

Another check that I do on my 21 touring with demountable wheels is to tap the spokes with your knuckle. A loose spoke will sound differently than a solid one. I do this every time I wash the car even with new wheels. I also look for excessive paint chipping at joints.

I have a 14 roadster with original wood. My horn bulb is mounted approximately 14 inches from the firewall 2 inches down from the top of the body. There is a 1” by 4” by 2” block of wood below the top rail of the body for the horn bulb to mount to. I hope this helps.
