    I am looking for a set of nice chrome road wheel for my 64 Electra. Anyone have a set sitting in the attic.
    I can trade for a very nice very shiney set of 15 inch rallyes or do outright purchase.

    Mark, I may be interested in buying those wheels if they're for a Skylark/Century and nobody wants to trade. Driver quality is good enough, I don't want to pay extra for great quality because the car they'd go on isn't in such great shape either. Do you have center caps to go with them by any chance?

    Mike,

    I can work out something with you on them. I bought these to replace the ones on my 70 GS, since they were an NOS correct set of the GSX wheels. I put them on the car, and I dont have a GSX. But, since I dont drive the car much, they are still there. Some day I'll take them off and sell them to someone with a GSX, or trade for a show quality set of the standard 15 inch rallyes

    The ones in question are really nice, freshly re-painted and polished, and they look nice enough that I would put them on my car. I do have centercaps for them.
    I also have a set or two of the 14 inch rallies if those are needed. $50.00 a set for them. I could have them delived close to you, if I can talk Bruce into taking a set when he goes home.
    Send me a PM and we can work something out. Or, if you have a set of the big car wheels, I would make you a heck of a deal

    Bill,

    Hey, can you help a brother out? You generally have more cool parts than anyone else :TU:





    There was a set that went for $830.00 on E-bay today. For that kind of money, I'll leave on the hubcaps. Two fools battled that out out of site!

    was in the salvage yard today and was scrounging for some stuff for my 69. found a great back seat and 3 ralley wheels. but what i saw that might interest you is a full size buick with at least two 5X5 wheels. i didnt look at the other side of the car because i wasnt looking for 5X5 wheels. i can go back next week if you are interested. take some picks if the wheels look in good shape. and email them to you. you pay for the wheels and shipping from here. what do you think?

    Rob,

    That is very cool :TU: thanks for that offer, and I will be more than happy to take you up on it.
    If you need some rallyes, I can help you out as well.
    Thanks and let me know what you find!

    I would trade you those for a set of NOS GSX wheels (5)
    If you ever wanted to buy a GSX instead of one of the big ole Buicks :TU:

    15 x 7 now those are hard to come by. Station wagons had the 15 x x7 on them as standard equipment as far as I know. Other than that those wheels are NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah, the 7's are for the back. I run a custom 1" spacer to fit the wheels on a 66 'Cat......then i can easily run P275-60 15 Drag Radials :laugh:
