Spokes

[modelman]

I have ordered stainless rims & spokes from Central-wheels, but they just contacted me asking for spoke details as they have no specs on file for my 1964 CA77 16" rims.
I wanted these for over-the Christmas period to 'do' the wheels, But mine are not yet stripped & not ready to do so, as i'm still moving it about the workshop, I had an 'eyeball' measurement & I arrived at:

135 mm long, 10 gauge, 18 with 85 degree bend & 18 with 95 degree bend, all with 7mm bend-length, (each wheel).

Can any of you experts out there confirm this, or have the necessary details please.
Another thing, front & rear appear to be the same to me, it that right?

I should have some that I can measure tomorrow.
