    Makaha commander was my first clay wheeled board, nice to get off the steel wheels.

    My first board was a 29″ ash Clay Wheel Makaha(Xmas1963)w/Colorado Ave.,Santa Monica sticker/decal.It came in a thick plastic bag .I think it was $20-blew my folks minds. I found a 29″ on Ebay which I’m going to restore lightly – Question,the 1st Makaha Chicago wheels seem to have come in different colors,but mine were red brown-Seem right ?
