Ugliest Road Wheels ever.

This has to be the nastiest set of "Buick Mags" i've ever seen for sale. They really need to be scrapped. Anyone seen worse than these?..........................http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/pts/5042296899.html

 

Looks like they've been laying at the bottom of Lake Michigan for a little while.

At least you can't say he's charging too much. p

 

Also cool he is willing to split them up if need be. :laugh:

 

...............before they split on their own!

Sandblast and powdercoat or paint. Re-chroming them would cost too much unless someone needed date coded rims for their perfect resto, and these were it.

 

Well, you could ....
I wouldn't take them, if he was giving them away

 

Maybe.............they are ......15x7's

 

Naval jelly will clean those right up. If that doesn't work try grape.

 

you can almost smell the patina. vintage, unrestored

 

I'd use strawberry. Always works in a jam.

 

Too many better cores around, even if these were free! These look like the 71 and later type---nothing rare, for sure.

Anyone had a recent good experience getting wheels re-chromed? I'm seeing $$$, plus shipping both ways, with disclaimers that suggest you will need a perfect core to get acceptable results.
