Some pictures of my FC.

This is what I bought last Saturday to become my project car. It don't look like much right now, but over time it'll start to take shape hopefully..

Yes, it's a glass sun roof, the shift **** is stripped and won't tighten strait, and the car has 170k on the obo but it's on the 2nd engine.

I'm not sure about the spacers, but my plans for it are to fix it up the body, give it a new paintjob, 5 lug conversion, new wheels and then finally a Turbo II transplant.

I should be able to finish "some" of those plans this summer, and then maybe finish the rest next summer.. Who knows, it would be cheaper to just buy a Turbo II , but then I wouldn't have any fun then

Looks pretty clean actually. Minor body work and minimal interior work, new paint and you're good to go! Nice save!

Bolt pattern is 4x114.3 (duh) and size is 15x6.5 or 7 (not positive on that) These are Nissan 300Z wheels from the early 80's (83-84) and they're actually my best friends, but he wants me to sell them for him so there ya go. I don't have pics yet but if you're that interested and talking the right price range I can get them. They're in better shape than the ones on this car in the thread. All the clear coat is still perfect and have no curb rash that I am aware of.

If you have them in the box how hard is it to look at the back of them to see how wide they are..it should be stamped.I asked you the lug pattern cause it could of been for anything.

Check the offset and rim width,think of a price..and keep in mind of shipping.

I don't have them in a box, I said I can box them and send them on their way if the price was right. They're on the top shelf of my best friends garage at the moment. I spoke with him today and mentioned someone might want them and he is fine with selling them. (he was contemplating keeping them but never mentioned it to me)

1 million dollars and I will hand deliver them. Give me a break here... How much are they worth to you? I'm not gonna climb up a 10' wall to look at offset for $20/rim shipped. Also his house is convienently located 85 miles from where I live at the moment. (for school) So walking over and taking a couple pics also aint gonna happen. I gave you more than enough info about the rims for you to find out these specs yourself. If you make a reasonable offer on the rims I will be more than happy getting you full high definition pics of all of them prior to your paying for them.
