    I was looking for some cheap wheels for a car of mine.....

    Found a set of 5....15 inch Hurricane Wheels.....they were listed as 5×4.5 ford...... Well one was that the 4 were Unilug......$100

    Then I Found some old vintage torque thrust style....2 -14 inch and 2-15 inch.....he wanted $185...... Bought for $125


    Sold the hurricanes locally for $300....

    So I made $75 and got the torque thrusts for free.... ..


    Then I find a pair of brand new 15×8 smoothie wheels in boxes for $75. On Craig's list...


    So I got technically those for free.......

    I only needed the 2 15 inch torque thrust wheels.......


    Then I found a guy 10 minutes away selling a set of factory front disc brakes off a 1967 Chevelle along with springs/ lower control arms and proportioning valve.....he wanted $250 on FB market place......he lowered the price to $100......picked those up......


    So at the end....I got my brakes, a set of torque thrust wheels and 2 new Smoothies for $100

    I almost got a set of factory. rear disc brakes from a camaro for $100 but after saying I'd come and pick them up ....he couldn't find 1 caliper. I guess you can't win them all.


    Not a bad week for me.
