Default Know/Seen This Hurst Wheel Ad

Anyone know or seen this Hurst wheel ad before? Looks to be from 65 but I can't find a thing on it.

I have an original flier from Hurst for the wheels when they first came out.

Can't tell you much, had this center-page ad for years.
Sold off most of my garage art since,
Sorry don't recall which magazine it came out of.



The '67 Firestone ads were cool too.

i believe that I have this ad also stashed away. It may have been part of the series where they show the 65 GTO floating with no wheels awaiting Hurst wheels

I have a binder full of Hurst stuff. Now , if I can only remember where I put it.
I lived real close to the Hurst plant as teenager. The property and original building is still there, with additions added when it was sold. Now is a co. called double H plastics. Remember the Hurst Hatch emblem....H-H
