My Hawk is 40 miles away, and I'm trying to use a spare wheel to make a seized brake loosening tool. I've got 2 50s Studebaker wheels here at home, and a pair of 70s Plymouth wheels with the right bolt pattern. The Plymouth wheels' inner hole is about 1/4 inch smaller than Studebaker wheels. I was getting ready to torch one of the Plymouth holes larger, but noticed that pictures of Avanti rear wheels show no pilot on the rear hub big enough to engage and center the wheel.

The part book shows the front hub as having a larger protruding section than the rear, but I could not find a good picture anywhere to see if the wheel is centered on the hub, as is the modern method.
When I zoom in on ths picture it looks like the hub is small.
