Just signed up with HotVWs today to be a dealer for them. Starting off with 5 issues and month, for a darn good price! First month will be June I think. So don't go to Chapters or Indigo, come to me!!! There may be enough of a discount that I can mail them out to whoever needs one for less than you can buy it for in the store. But I'll have to wait and see.
Set of 4 Center Line brand aluminum 2 piece rims.
2 fronts are 15" x 3.5" and 2 rears are 15" x 5.5"
Each rims weighs 12.4 lbs
Date code on each 3.5" rim is 12/29/03 and 01/09/03
Date code on each 5.5" rim is 10/06/04 and 01/06/04
all 4 center caps included as well as 16 chrome mounting nuts and washers.
Perfect condition- no curb rash, no tire machine scratches, no corrosion. Each rim could use 15 minutes with some polish and a cloth, that's it. Brake dust on the inside of the rims (back especially) from being on a car with 4 wheel disc brakes.
These are the rims from Laurence's '62 ragtop. I would like to see $400 for the complete set. They are good for a race car, but stick out a bit on a street car. Here is a pic of the rims on Laurence's car. He has a 4" narrowed beam as well!!!
If you run widened fenders they would fit well.
Shoot me an e-mail if interested. Greg.

I personally spoke to Pat Downs at CB Performance about the distributor and he played a large part in it's development. He has sold many on engines he has built, and if he stands behind them, then so do I. I have one ready to be installed on my '65 bus, that I will likely do over the weekend.
Let me know if you want 1 and I will set it aside. Pics below.
I'm posting this up at the request of Gerry Minor.

1972 super beetle for sale . Fresh import from California / Arizona . Very solid un- molested , un- modified , accident free car still wearing it's original paint . Car run's strong { I am told it has a rebuilt motor } , has tight steering and brakes , new carb , new battery , nearly new tires , good strut's with no leaks , solid pans and battery tray , perfect aprons . good interior .
I bought this car for a German look project I was going to start but the wife has talked me out of it for now. This is a very solid hard to find original car that would be a great candidate for a resto , german look or drive as is with it's patina paint.
We all know what it cost's to repair rusty cars so why not start with something solid .
This car has been in Canada in my garage approx. 3 months . I am not desperate to sell but just trying to make my wife happy.
Asking $4995.00 but will entertain reasonable offers. {Reasonable being the key word }
I have a trailer and may assist with delivery depending on location .
