The annual two-day Turlock swap meet is at the end of the month. If you don't find any by then, I'll take a picture with me to see if I can find them there.

I sure wish I had known those were worth that kind of scratch, I left a pair w/cheater slicks mounted on them laying in the barn when I gave away my first house after the divorce. They're probably still there, but it'd take a lot more than that to have go deal with her again.lol

Sanford, after reading this a joke I heard came to my mind for some reason.

These two guys were talking and the one guy said, "Did you hear about the accident that happened on my farm the other day? The other guy said, "No, what happened?" He said, "My ex-mother-in-law was pilferin' around my place the other day and fell in a well." The other guy said, "Is she alright?" He said, "I guess she is. I haven't heard her holler in 2-3 days!"

Hey Joe, Yea plan on running them on the duece, between me and my buddy we have 5 now said he would let me use his but they are all 5.5 wide and I would really like to find a pair of 4.5 for the front. I will get a few new photos up Its blown apart more actually, mostly trying to dig up some parts and rebuilding all the mechanicals right now.

These are actually travel trailer rims from I believe 30-40's but are ford 5 on 5.5 bolt circle and will except the early ford cap. I want something different from what everyone else is running. So have been trying to contact trailer guys also. Anyone who knows any old trailer restorers would appreciate that info also so I can contact them.

One week until the big Turlock swap meet. Hopefully it won't get rained out.

I'll print a picture, the wheel stamping info and your phone number, and will bring with me.

I have everything printed and written down, including your cell phone #.

If they're cheap enough, I'll buy them to resell if you won't need them.
