Honestly, if I had a '30's or '40's rod, I think I'd buy a set of repros in a heartbeat if they were $100 a pop...They just look right. Aluminum just doesn't look right on an old-old car/truck.
Heck, I may just go to the local JY and sort through his pile. Pay him $50.00, and turn around and sell them for $3500. Then I can buy that '53 Merc I've wanted, lol.
Man, I wish I could stumble onto a farm auction with a set of these. I would almost guarantee no one else would know what they were for and I could get them for less than $100 for the set. I would love to see the look on my wife's face as I'm bidding $100 on a set of old,"junky" wheels. Then I again Iould like to see her face when I would sell them for $2500!
I wonder how many of these might have been just tossed out over the years.
