    find a banjo rear. or a Ford maverick 8" would work possibly. I'm not shure on the '35 wheels

    Ford half-ton 9" rears have the same bolt pattern, but might be too wide.

    i have heard that an old style bronco,66-72 may be close on width and have the 5x5 1/2 bolt pattern. the coupe has lost its fenders so the rear can be a little wider if needed. will the 35 ford wheels fit over the bronco brake drums. i sure hope someone out there can help. thanks again, ww
