    60s Cox 1/32 scale Ford GT wheels, set screw mounting, set of 4, new old stock,
    This set of 4 Cox genuine magnesium slot car wheels has been converted for set screw mounting on 1/8" drill blank axles by removing the original hub made for thread-on or other mounting and press-fitting a machined aluminum insert into the back of each wheel.  Set screws are included.  These wheels can easily be adapted for 3/32" axles with machined axle reducers available from numerous online sources or from your local commercial slot
    car raceway if you have one.
    Because the original Cox wheels often are not quite perfectly true or concentric, our wheels may occasionally show some slight eccentricity or imperfect trueness, but this is nothing that can't be dealt with in the tire truing process and will not affect the car's performance or appearance.  Also, in a few cases, the insert may come loose from the wheel after a period of use.  If this happens, as long as the wheel has not been cracked it can be corrected by coating the mating surfaces of the insert with CA glue and pressing it back into the wheel.  When the glue sets it will be stronger than the original press fit.
    eBayers familiar with our converted wheels will notice that we are doing something differently than we have in the past.  Instead of painting the wheel in a color such as silver or gold and then polishing the rims and clear coating the wheels we are leaving the entire outer face in white primer.  The buyer has the option of painting the wheels as desired and either polishing the rim or not.  The white primer serves to retard the notorious Cox wheel oxidization until the purchaser paints and polishes the wheels to his own requirements.
