I really don't know. The outer of the room is painted red with the hubcap fitting inside. The rest of the inner rim is black.

Thanks for the welcome. The car was imported in New Zealand by legendary Kiwi racer Kenny Smith in 72 who should it on to the family I bought it from. The rims are coloured that way with the chrome hubcaps. The spare is exactly the same. Also have the original owners manual and some bits and bobs spares. The only thing we need is a blue for strap for the passenger door, which the owner took out and was lost by the guy who was supposed to do it

Recently bought this 1971 Monte Carlo, with the 402 motor. It's been in the same family for about 47 years and garage store, same mechanic had been servicing her. All original. Only thing she needs is a door strap for the passenger side. Any advice welcome on this.
