$850.00 Plus shipping cost!!!!

Here is a Set of 4 Stock Wheels 914.361.011.01 (5.5 X 15) just back from the wheel shop. All wheels have been straightened, cleaned, and polished. Still wrapped in the plastic. These look great and are ready for a new home. $850 / OBO plus shipping cost. Local pickup is OK. I'm located in Irvine, CA

Joe - 1 pic shows 4 & the other 5 wheels - or am I just showing my age & need for new glasses?

Who did the polishing on them?
... were they re-anodized or just polished?

I had 5 wheels refurbished, but am only selling 4. Just polished, straightened, and trued up, no anodizing. Alloy Wheel Tech in Montebello, CA. did the work.

"....The name escapes me at this moment. Guess that shows my age."

We refer to that as "Half-zymers" at our age - where we remember hafl the stuff, half the time!

But then you obviously have better "piles" .... er, I mean "files" ..... than I have, cuz you found their name!

Unfortunately full polish won't work for what I want to do with my 73 2L resto.

I need a set of 5 restorable ones to either have Al Reid or Weideman restore to OE finish (polished blades/rim with satin background), or find a full set part way there, completely done, perfect originals, etc.

Good Luck!

Have you sold these wheels yet? I really need these for a 914 project I am getting ready to begin.

My e-mail is jlitvany@mac.com. I am interested if you have good set. If Alloy Wheel Tech can get these to look as good as the ones you posted in August, I will be psyched. How much did they charge per wheel?

Thanks,
J. Litvany

Carl,

I've gotten a full set of 5 restored by Al Reid since this post of mine. Try posting your own FS ad in the classifieds for them, as they frown upon other sellers hijacking another person's ad (even if trying to help a fellow member- PM is the preferred route IIRC). I'm sure you'll sell them there.

Cheers!
Tom
