Yeah that's what I meant, sorry. But the 2001 rear wheel must also have a 3/4" hub then because I'm finding that those are not as easy to find as a 02-07 1" hub wheel. I'm planning on having them chrome plated and need to find donors.
Does it matter if I use a 02-07 1" hub wheel with a 3/4" bearing for the rear?

You can (and will want to) use 3/4" bearings and center spacer sleeve in the wheels that originally came with 1" bearings
What style of wheels are you looking for?

Ok that's good to know. I had an obviously inexperienced service tech tell me that wasn't safe.
9 spoke wagon wheels. I may have found a set from Sport Chrome. They'll buy what I need and plate them for me. Just turns out to be more $$ than I was hoping to spend.

It can be tougher if you were going the other way...e.g. trying to use 1" bearings in a 3/4" wheel (but Sealed Bearing Cast wheels like the wagon wheels are easy to convert anyways)
Can I ask how much their charging for the "Cores"

Oh ok cool! Good to know, thanks. I worked a deal with them for around $400 for 2 I believe it was. They'll guarantee them to be straight and clean, etc. I'm worried about risking buying a used set and them have issues that need to be fixed and run my bill up.
