I have some nice Cleveland type III 6x6 wheels model 40-24 mfg date of 4-63
and related brakes that came of a Mooney M20 and I would like to use on them
my project. The only issue is that one of them has a substantial chip mising
out of the outer flange. The idea is to build up the mising piece with a few
weld beads and grind to shape. The question is; can anyone tell me if these
are aluminum or magnesium and what composition of aluminum might they be or
how do I find out.
Thanks:

I've got a couple sets of 6x6.  I haven't looked at them in a year or two, but I believe they are Clevelands.  They're pretty old and beat up, but I was just using them as project wheels.  Ya' wanna see if you can get the pieces you need out of 'em.
