Wheel identification

[Patrick brophy]

When I bought my 1957 Thunderbird it had non thunderbird wheels on it. The fellow I bought it from told me that they were off a 1969 Mach 1.
The two front wheels required a half inch spacer due to the incorrect back space required with the ball joint issues.
I still have those wheels and would like to get them out of my shop.
They have the FOMOCO oval and three of them are marked 9Mc and one is just marked 9M. The 9 on all four appears to be stamped off just a little off cant from the M and the C, almost as if it was hand stamped.

Would anyone know if they are indeed from a Mach 1 ,and if so what they would be worth?

They were on various ford cars of that period. There is a pair on ebay asking $99

The caps and trim rings get kind of spendy sometimes. Nice looking wheels, had them for years on my Montego and a cougar. Be best to sell local, shipping would be expensive.

9 = 1969
M = MOTOR WHEEL CORP
C = Month of Manufacture

Are they 14" and are they painted silver or chromed?

They are 14 inch and chromed. Pretty much like the example Mercman from Ox displayed below.

Thank you all for the information. I will feel a little better now when I list them for sale.

A friend of mine had a 68 Mustang GT that he bought new had those, but I don't remember if they were chrome or painted silver.

I think that '68-'69 Torino and Fairlane GT's also had them as an option.
I've seen chrome and/or painted silver wheels too.

My ‘68 Mustang GT Convertible has those, except the center cap has GT markings. The wheels were originally Silver, but I did not like the chrome trim rings, silver wheels and chrome center cap, so I painted the wheels to match the car ~ Sea Breeze Aqua. Looks much “cleaner” and garners very favorable comments.
