    I'm looking for a set of original Toyota steel rims for my 78 2wd pickup that will accept the original hub caps. I found hub caps on ebay - now on the way. I have a set of alloys that I will trade if interested. Otherwise, please send photos and your asking price.

    One of mine has a blown tire. They are all new within the past year. But I'm gonna try and hold onto them for a little bit. Curt will probably sell his for that. I borrowed two of his. He loves money. :lol:

    MMMM... Money! Who doesn't love it?!? My problem is, I'm married with children, so I make it and see her and the kids spend it... which means I long for it...

    I have no problem selling mine... I need some funds to buy SB88's engine...

    So don't tell her about it duuuh. Every guy should have a small portion of "My money *****!" for guy reasons. As in car parts, guns, porn, beer and sports games. :lol::ROFL:

    You guys are nuts. But that's entirely okay. I used to live in Seattle, wish I could make the mini-yota meet. Mine is special and I'd love to show it off! So Curt - how about I paypal you $100 immediately, you then ship and tell me what you spent, and I'll paypal you again to cover shipping? Or you tell me how you'd like to handle it. You can ship them the slowest cheapest way possible. I don't want to waste my own beer money.... I'm an old guy so I figured out a long time ago how to keep a little side fund away from the wifey... hee hee. Sorry to hear you fellas are still workin' through that issue.

    I think I decided that if I *ever* get a raise where I'm working (stupid raise freeze!), that I will let on to the misses that we didn't get a raise, and then I'll change my direct deposit to put that difference into a hidden account.

    Anyway, I'll let you know on the fourth (fifth at the latest) how we can handle the transaction. There is the whole 'misses' overhead I still have to deal with! LOL

    Thanks!

    First, let me apologize for not getting back to you in the time frame I promised...

    Okay, here's the deal. I got bogged down in a head swap that is taking longer than I thought, and I'm still researching some shipping options that won't have anyone paying out the nose.

    So, I'm not trying to make excuses, but I need a little extra time. I want to make this as painless as possible with a balance of shipping price and reliability. I'll let you know something soon!

    Thanks for your patience!
