They are stamped with "Mistral" and "MOD" on the wheel....can't find any history of that brand of wheel. I'm thinking about going to 14" VTO and will be selling them, but I'm curious what I am selling??
 
They look like Minilites or GB's
There are lots of them that look like that

Where in the world did you find that ad? How cool. Tempted to keep them, the are probably not very common
 
I don't suppose you got the girl with them?
 
ha! I wish! That would be a great poster for he garage
 
Imported and sold by 7 Enterprises in the 80's when they were in Newport News, VA.
Used on Spridgets and Mini's. :encouragement:
 
Nice, think I am keeping them, kinda cool to have something unique. I found an original centre cap with the decal in good shape, I'll have the decal reproduced and make the wheels correct.
 
When you make the center caps and artwork, please post a picture here.

When I got the Mini it came with (3) Carmona wheels. I eventually found a 4th wheel but as you say... they are not common. I have my set of 10" rims in the attic and would love to make my own set of center caps to make them more original.
