Not so fancy any more
Seen among the rubble with no vehicle attached. The spoked wheels and what I recall were called “flippers” back in my time. Am I correct?

No idea, but neat photo!
@distractedbyzombies - thanks for the comment.
I always like the B&W – this is no exception. That is one fancy rim…
You got me there! But you swing a mean camera.
Wow…wonder what happened to the rest of the vehicle. Great photo!
I have no idea! But, great photo!
HUGS!
That wheel came from the day when the world was in black & white.
Funny how little people think. I think you’re right about the perilous times. Sometimes I think I’d really like to move to Texas, or Florida. One has a lot of retirees with common sense and the other has gun toting cowboys. 
I like both of those.
@mcbery - Good thinking about Florida and Texas! Thanks for the comment!
I don’ t remember for France but those wheels are (were ) for luxurious vehicles.

@fauquet - Yes,I think so also.
Beats heck out of me. I’m from that era, but don’t even know what a flipper is. But if that wheel could talk, bet it could tell some tales…
don’t know either, but cool shot!
i need to try to find some things like this to shoot for pics in Ben’s room-
you’re inspiring me!!
@dsullivan - thanks for the comment.

Memories! In the dirt!
@Donkey_Guy_10 - Indeed! Thanks for the comment.
interesting how things sit over the years and are forgotten. that’s one fancy wheel.
