Does anyone know the correct color of the rims for a styled wf. Mine are orange but I have found pictures of the rims with black and orange. I really hope they should be orange, a preference thing. thanks for input. ------------- 66 190gas, 49WF, b1, b10, 37WC, 48WF, B,C, 3 WD'S 66allcrop, 350chevy powered WC |

My books just say Persian Orange with blue-letter decals, they don't call out a different color wheel. ------------- Waukesha B, B, IB, G, styled WF, D15, 615 backhoe, 2-Oliver OC3's, 4 Ford Model T's, 3 Model A Fords, AV8 Coupe, AV8 Roadster, 1933 Ford Wrecker |

Normally the rear rims are galvanized, everything else is orange ------------- Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives. |

Here is our 1950 model that has not had any paint applied since it left West Allis. As you can seee the rims, front and rear are galvanized. Since this pic we had to do something with the rear rims or risk losing them due to prior leaks, you can see the surface rust in the pic.

I agree with Ted and Butch. While I did not sell a WF I can add that all the tractors we sold when the WF was made, the B, C, G. WC, and WD came through with galvanized rims.
Good Luck!
