Ha I wasn't expecting that. So you're no longer in a rush to get these wheels huh? Want me to get them restored for you?

Ill give you 400 and a grilled cheese sandwich. But only if you deliver. Can't make a grilled cheese worth a damn and the wife ain't going to Florida.

Heh, nice try Duster but I'm not delivering.

yupididit, I'd rather you just ship them as-is. And I'm going to look at another wagon tomorrow afternoon–I'm still in a bit of a hurry to get the wheels.

I just landed in Orlando. I'm so much closer to the car than I was this morning. I'm just here to get on another plane. Stupid airplanes.

No need for another plane when you can just buy a cheap Merc wagon.

When would it need to be gone?

There's a direct relationship between price paid and time it can remain on property. Ideally, I'd like it gone in the next week or two. But I may be able to stretch that for the right person.

A buddy of mine is coming to look at it tonight. I'm not sure how interested he is, but you never know. I'll shoot some more pictures while I'm out there with it.

Wasn't able to get tires removed today. But, I'm glad to discover the tires are definitely reusable.

I will up my offer to $600, a bottle of scotch and a one owner 2002 Chevy Malibu which despite being called the worst car you could buy by some (most) has covered over 400,000 miles which is roughly the distance covered by all the winners of both the Rolex 24 and the prestigious 24 hours of Le Mans combined.

yupididit, what's the status of the wheels and tires? I've emailed you a few times, but haven't gotten any response.

Would it be easier for all involved if you refunded my PayPal payment and called this a failed experiment?
