The Art Decos have BLACK wheels. The factory would paint wheels body color
on special order. The trucks have NO pin stripe like the cars of the era
did.

Sounds like the truck is really coming along. When can we see pix?

Subject: [oletrucks] 41 to 46 Chevy wheel color
I have been waiting to paint my wheels the correct color. Well now I am in
position to do the painting and wondered what color I should go with. I
have painted the truck hunter green and the fenders and running boards semi
gloss black. Should the wheels be painted green or black? I am keeping
this as original as I can. Except swapping out non-chrome parts for chrome
ones.
Thanks,
