Hi,
could this be a factory oops on my Javelin: twice 5spoke square on the right side, one 5spoke square and one 5spoke on the left

The factory workers simply did not distinguish those two wheel types. During the time those 5 slot wheels were current (about 1974-76), they could be applied together with 5 square wheels in any combination.

Recently I wanted to take a ride on a Streak Track, so I entered my Lambo and tried to go down, but.....someone has stolen my steering wheel

Thanks Christian this clears up a question i had on another thread (Superfast casting show #5) regarding an SF#5 Lotus JPS with a combination of 5 slot and 5 square wheels. Thanks for the information.
