He was b*tch*ng about $405??? Geez, that's about the cost on ONE of those goofy 'dubs' wheels....go figure!
i have seen alot of wheels on ebay that looked great in the ad. BUT... i always have the seller shoot good pics for me of the valve stem area with sunlight as the lighting. the chrome most wheels have been ravaged by steel wool and the valve stem area seems to be the best place to find the scrub marks. it is hard to find wheels that were so well maintained that they never needed such a harsh attack on the chome.
Just talked to Mike at Specialty Wheels and he said that the "Riviera" style big car rims (6" and 7" widths) are only offered if and when they come across usable cores, which is extremely rare now days. :ball:
Wonder what they consider a usable core, as there are quite a few big Buicks cars in my local yard with ralley wheels. I'll bet the shipping would be a killer...
Don't know, but I'd pick up all the ones in your local yard, as 20 years from now, people will be willing to spend big bucks even for un-usable cores..... :grin: :grin: :grin: :grin:
If only my wife would let me store them in the den... "But honey - we'll be RICH!!!" :spank: :spank: :spank:
