New Wheels!
 

Ok old wheels, but I fulfilled one of my biggest list items for my car today. The 92 wheels will become track wheels, and these will hit the street. Russ McBride spotted them locally on craigslist last night and called me. Said if I didn't buy them he would!

After calling, I found out Joe was a big time ZR-1 guy, had owned several of them over the years, and had two sets of these wheels in his basement just gathering dust. I convinced Russ it was a great excuse for a road trip and we showed up at his house with two ZR-1s. Ended up spending several hours there, just talking cars, beer and boats. Joe Lambert, great guy and a member here who hasn't been around in a long time. I think I talked him into getting back on here and contributing. He also still has a ZR-1, but more on that in a different thread.

It pays off to have a Craigslist alert for "ZR-1". :-)

I saw those yesterday. guy in canton Georgia asking 500.00. almost pulled the trigger but I have mine I can just restore and polish them. I have too many wheels but I just haven't found the right set yet... the 90 wheel is unique only to the 90 but not as attractive as the amolds I feel. Just saw that a fellow member finally sold his polished amolds so there goes that pair. Oh well...

But better than the "salad shooters'

Re: New Wheels!
 

Good find, glad you found them first!

Re: New Wheels!
 

The Typhoon/Syclone guys would have been all over those I would have thought had they spotted them. They do those "hot rods" real well.

Re: New Wheels!
 

Clearly, these are the fastest wheels to have.

I'll have them mounted up this week, can't wait!

Love it or hate it, the '90 wheel is a very intricate piece, with a lot of different surfaces, finishes, and techniques incorporated into a single piece.......for this reason I love it!
