My cousin sent me these photos today asking if I knew what they are from. I don't have a clue.

They could be 1935 Chevrolet Master Deluxe.

Thank you Pat.
I'll see if he can send a couple more photos to help verify.

They are more likely from a Chevrolet Standard series car than a Master Deluxe. The Master Deluxe for 1935 had pressed steel "spoked" wheels. The light trucks may have used the wire wheels. The rims in your pics look rather wide for a light car of that era, but it's possible they came from a Suburban model, aka a station wagon. The earlier 1930's Chevrolets used a wire wheel, but I think they were 18" rims. I don't think the 1936 or later models used wire wheels on any series. A 1935 Chevrolet roadster is one beautiful car. Rare, too.
