Woods Brothers who, to my knowledge never worked on anything but Fords, pitted for
Jim Clark in a rear engine Lotus powered Ford in the 1965 Indy 500.

The car used knockoff hubs instead of traditional lug nuts.
The woods brothers had asked Ford to borrow some knockoff hubs and 3-spoke knockoffs to practice with.

When the Woods brothers returned the knockoffs to Ford, they were beat all to heck from practicing.
But......
In 1965 Jim Clark won the Indy 500 in a rear engine Lotus powered Ford.
