|
|
I picked up a 62 project bug today and it came with this. This looks like the well sought after high dollar Empi wheel for VW, but I have also seen some similar pics that say these are for Datsun. Can someone help me identify and give me idea on value?
Thanks in advance

So, i went back last night to pick up the rest of the parts from the '62 project I bought. Sifting through the parts, I find the wheel that was originally supposed to go with the Bug. I negotiated a deal and bought this too. After the response I have received on the first wheel, I have decided to sell both. They are both nice used condition, but understand they are used and not NOS. I am not giving these away, but will offer them here before they go to eBay.

I have asked for feedback on price, no one has stepped up and provided it so I will start at $750.00 each... |
