Price Check - 4 Lug Fuchs Options

[carr914]

I'm posting here because;

#1, I don't have them in my hands yet ( They are coming in on a car that I will be doing a -6 conversion on), and therefore can't sell them until I have them.

#2, I have been so involved in Real -6s the last few years, that I have not kept up or even looked at -4 pricing, especially Fuchs

Anyway, I will have Five 4 -Lug Fuchs in the next week or so. They look nice and have been refinished in the original style. I'm not sure how nice the center caps are. I will be selling these with tires if possible, Center caps, Lug Bolts and I think I have a stash of those black plastic lug bolt covers.

So what is the going rate these days?

They'll move at $450 for the set if they are in decent shape up to $600 for primo ones.

I sold my set of 5 with caps and lug bolts for $515 last August.

If the buyer is picking them up a for a concours vehicle one factor will be the date stamping you can find on the back. Basically if they are all from the same month/year AND in good shape you can get a little more for them than what I did. However if they were like mine and 2 out of the three were from a later year and month expect $100 per rim/cap/lug combo as the median price.

They'll move at $450 for the set if they are in decent shape up to $600 for primo ones.

Derek - it was $500 - $100 per wheel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

TC - Mark Heard in TX want the ones I got from Derek last summer for his LE Cremesicle, since he wants to do it as a Japan 914SL look alike with the red painted Fuchs, which are what Derek sold to me (Phoenix Red over Chromate Green Primer ala the US LE Mahles).

So we (he & I) are looking for a good "replacement" set of 5 in standard OE finish to restore. When you get them in, plz shoot me an email with price & pix. I'll place a 1st interest in them pending pix & price, or after anyone in front of me.

I have a set of 4 NOS/NIB center caps, & will get new factory lugs (unless yours are essentially perfect/excl), & won't want the tires, esp. if I airline it with them.

If they work out condition & pricewise, then I have a conference in Orlando around the 26th, so I may be able to pack 5 wheels only in a bag or 2 & meet the Southwest 2 free bags limit of 50# each. How close are you to Orlando? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Rav914 - Al quoted me $140 per wheel for Derek's to restore & re-anodize them (including removing the paint/primer), so your $500 for 4 wheels sounds about right.

Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
