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? T.C. |

Yes, that is Wayne's car, it arrived here yesterday
If you are going to have Al Reid do the wheels, it shouldn't matter if they have powdercoat, as he would strip the wheels anyway. |

Yes, that is Wayne's car, it arrived here yesterday If you are going to have Al Reid do the wheels, it shouldn't matter if they have powdercoat, as he would strip the wheels anyway. How funny! Wayne lives a couple of blocks from one of my brother's & nephews' homes. I got a 914 bra from him a while back & had him drop it there to get on my trip this summer. Due to my busy schedule back there, we didn't get a chance to hook up, except to talk by phone my last evening in town. He seemed like a nice guy & his resto post looked like he did a ton of work on that 914! Would the PC process do anything to weaken the forged aluminum of the wheels? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) How much rash/pitting is there to repair on them & how easily is that done by guys like Al? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I think part of the $140 quoted by Al reflected stripping the Phoenix Red over Chromate primer on the set of 5 Fuchs I have - that Mark Heard wants to use as painted for his LE resto as a Japan-style 914SL - so I think I can probably save on the overall resto cost by him if he doesn't strip them - but not sure. Still $75 for the 4 + whatever for the spare may be a good way to go if I can bring them with me in a 2nd bag on Southwest next month to save shipping. Otherwise I'd need a quote to ship to 92867. |
