62 8-lugs
Can anyone tell me if the flat edge on the fins on a 62 8-lug should have a machined look, or is a cast edge just like the rest of the drum?

The outer edges of the fins should have a machined look. If the wheels have been media blasted to clean them up, you can use a flat file to smooth out the fin edges and make them look like new again.
Here's a picture I grabbed off ebay a while back of an 8 lug wheel on a 12,000 mile car. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
