My birthday present arrived a couple days early!

Thanks to my undercover operative LYNN down in Oklahoma, who just happened to have the perfect alibi for being in Dallas, for an alleged wedding, he was able to circumvent the ebay crazy who blocked my bids because I asked too many logical questions about the set of wheels.

Lynn purchased the wheels and then had another sub-operative pick them up and transport them to his villainous lair in Oklahoma.

It took a few days since there was a early storm and power outage in town but he was able to get them packed up and after paying a fortune to the UPS store on his town, they arrived safely up here in Jersey this afternoon.

A beautiful set of 14x6 1969 dated Motor Wheel Spyders. They were complete with a set of original center caps and 20 right hand lug nuts. With the brand new set of center caps and 10 lefties and 10 righty lug nuts I got from the guy in Wisconsin, I now have a new pair of shoes for the Cuda.

Here's what they look like after I washed and scrubbed them in my front yard. Next step is cleaning the aluminum with some chemical stuff I have coming soon. The chrome is amazing! - must have been installed on a central Texas car for the past half century.

THANK YOU LYNN!!!

I can't say how many guys on this site have helped me out. Many of you would have done the same thing. Glad I could help out a fellow car guy.
