Dunno about the six-hole design, but what's commonly called a "Soft 8" would look pretty similar. Versions are made by numerous companies. Summit Racing has some by Cragar, you can check their catalog online.

they were called gamblers and are not made any more



DING DING DING WE GOT A WINNER

they were available in 5 or 6 big holes under the same name. the 5 hole versions were the more common. as a matter of fact Jeep decided to use them on the Jeep Wrangler Renegade model as standard feature

I used to see them with knock offs on a lot of mid 80s cars, monte's, f-body, etc.
