That is just stupid.  :dontknow:
I recently picked up a  brand new Grant Collector Series (real leather) wheel that lists for $170 for $80.  I have seen that wheel new for about $60.

now wait a minute. I just bought this same wheel for 29.99 from summit plus 14 for the intallation kit.. The installation kit I got with it did not work. To use it you had to leave out the 5 inch extension behind and wheel and then the wheel almost hit the dash. This guy is going to make a nice profit on this. Maybe I should buy them from summitt and put them on ebay.
I drilled my own holes and  mounted it without the kit.

LMAO!!!!!!!!  :laughup: :laughing: This guiy is one stupid arsecrack. (Him and the Bidders).

I'm juts not sure on what he's thinking, he may think that since he got it from a "70 Cuda" that it's original, the buyers may not be up to scratch on there MoPars and think that it's an original piece. Or the guy knows that and he's just trying to rip some dumb people off.
Or last but not least he knows it's a repo wheel that doesn't esemble the original Tuff wheel and like us he can't believe the price!  :o :D

heminut,
thanks for the 4 inch extension info, I will try to get one from grant.
with the 3 inch forward dish and the original extension its just a little too close.
the 4 inch would be perfect. and then can probly have a horn also.

You're welcome b5. The Grant part # is 4000, and it's actually a 2" extension, my bad. You can probably go in to any Checker or Autozone and give them the Grant part number and they can get it for you, and probably for less than Grants suggested list price.
