Ford Model A Antique Wheel Restoration and Auction!
Published at : 23 Dec 2025
I take a rusty old Ford antique wheel and give it some TLC. I start with doing body work on the hub cap, make 2 custom anvils in the process, to remove as many dents as possible. Then I sand it to reduce the depth of the scratches. Then I nickel plate it and polish it to a shine. Moving on to the wheel, I use a sandblasting gun and regular play sand to remove the rust, old paint and old primer. After several hours, I have the wheel blasted and ready for paint. I prime it first and then follow it with a gloss red.
This wheel is up for auction! 10% of the proceeds will be donated to St. Jude's Children's Hospital. AUCTION LINK: https://ebay.us/RuM4q0
