Greetings, I have a TC EXU that is completely original in survivor condition . In other words it looks like a 66 year old car. The wheels on it are in poor cosmetic condition. I plan on keeping the car in its present condition and enjoying it as is. But it needs new tires as the current ones are from 1966. I cannot bring myself to put new tires on the old rusty ugly wheels but I feel like restringing them will look odd on an unrestored survivor. So I would like to find a set of used but decent wheels that look used but not as trashed as mine. If anyone knows of a set for sale please let me know.
Regards,

I a set of TC wheels which have been recently powder painted (5,) four have dunlop tires mounted on them that don't look too bad, I don't know the age. The wheels run straight and true. I don't need them Isince I replaced them with chrome wheels. I would like $400 for the set. I travel to Ft Wayne In to visit my son and family often. 231 386 5857

Jeff, if you look at my blog for December and ignore showers, trenches and floors you'll see that I sandblasted my wheels and then painted with an undercoat and Moss wheel silver. Tok a few days but well worth it.
I'm sure you'll get a $10 sand blaster from Harbor Freight and kiln dried sand from the builders merchant. You will need an air compressor though.
