wtb 15 inch turbo cast's
I envisioned my next step for after the car is running, I figured Ill start looking for theese rims now because they will be hard to find.
Im looking for 15 inch turbocast wheels from early 80's firebirds, Im looking for the ones with the center cap aka "bowling ball"
Thanks,
Matt

You really want a set of these? The wheels are easy, the hub caps are the hard part to get. I have a 15" set (they come 14 and 15), but no caps. If you find caps first, I'd be willing to part with them.

Dunno, I'd have to research a little to find a price fair us both...and find replacement 'work' wheels for the 67 (that is where they are right now). When do you need them?

dont worry about it man, Ive been reaserching the wheels all day, and Id be paying more in hubcaps, then the project is worth, people are selling used hubcaps for alot, because of the kitt replicas. I was going to paint the wheels silver, then paint the caps, the color of the gta wheels i have on now, I would also need new tires. so its just not economic for me right now,

OK. I'll probably still have them in 5 years. LOL Project car wheels.
IMO it would be cooler to polish & powdercoat them rather then painting them.
