    FS: 6 and 7 FUCHS dated Feb/March '68

    I have a set of early Fuchs 6" and 7". I have owned them for some years. They have been sitting on the shelves in my study while I waited to find a car to put them on. Pretty sure I am not going to need them now, so time for someone else to enjoy them.

    The 6 are deep rims and are date stamped 3/68

    The 7 are date stamped 2/68

    They appear to have been refurbished at some point. So they don't have ink stamps. They are exactly as I bought them from a seller on here 5 or so years ago.

    I'd like $8500 for them.

    If you need them shipped to the USA or Europe I will help. They will be boxed up and put on a pallet by Prill Porsche Classics in the UK. You will be responsible for arranging to have them picked up by the shipper of your choice. What I would say is that I recently sold my extremely heavy Rudge wheels to a Speedster owner in LA with no problems. DHL took them away and they were on his car inside 10 days.

    my email is johnbrewer@me.com

    I can take as many photos as anyone needs, on request. On my scales the wheels weigh between 11 and 12 lbs, or some small amount over 5kg. Thanks.

    I am not a wheel expert and, as I say, the backs appear to have been restored so I can't see part numbers.

    But going by the dates, weight and the shape of the ribs, they seem a lot like these.

    Hopefully someone will be along shortly to deliver a definitive opinion!

    This is a very rare set of 911R Fuchs, or at least from the racing departement.
    Deep 6 earlier than 6/68 are very rare, much rarer than 7R.
    And these 6R are also 2-300 grammes lighter than the ordinary production deep6.

    I have a set from 12/67 and 3/68 on my 67 912 and love them for what they are!

    '67 911S Sunroof, Polo Red(Project disguised as a G-model)
    '67 912 Sunroof, Light Ivory(Alive and kickin')
    '67 912 SWTarga, Signal Red(Project in the making)
    X: 67 911 Coupe + 67S Targa, 912, 924, 944, 928, 356

    On the 3/68 rim I can see an ink stamp of 361 012. Can u make out the last 2 digits ? If it is 03 , you have direct confirmation that these are 6R's.
