Looks like a styled steel wheel from about 69 or 70.
Not from a 65 or 66.

If it is a ford wheel it will have Ford stamped on it.

I have been looking at image searches for Ford wheels. They do resemble Magnums in a way but not an exact match. I am not sure about the bolt patterns but I think Buick made a simular wheel but again the center cap is different. Hoping someone can tell me for sure. I don't think they will fit after the disc brake swap but if they do I may reuse them..

Back in the sixties and seventies Magnum style wheels were made for many manufacturers by the Motor Wheel Corporation of Lansing Michigan (part of Goodyear.) I believe that's a Dodge version.

Yeah, that looks like Mopar Mag 500 to me, because of the center cap. The reason it looks different is that it has a trim ring.

A lot of the ford magnums had trim rings too. The Dodge magnum will fit on a ford. The bolt pattern is the same.
