    alloy wheels for new (old) 244 200 1985

    Just started parting out my 85 244Turbo - 17 Chicago winters were too much.
    So, I've got 4 15" Turbo wheels (and tires) available.
    If you're interested, I can send pix. My email is jwsocw@earthlink.net

    alloy wheels for new (old) 244 200 1984

    I was parting out a 260 Diesel wagon. I had a pair of 14" alloys I would have given away free. Nobody replied to my ad from a few weeks ago. I was moving and had to let the junkyard have them in order to tow it away. I also had to let go of a low milage B21F motor and auto trans from my garage. Please check the want ads Right here on the brickboard. There are a few other people parting out cars.
    Just ask them what they have, you might be suprised. I bought my wiring harness and some other stuff here for my 245 without any problems. You can also check out EBAY.

    Or so what I do, patrol the pick and pulls every chance you get. Look for 4 straight wheels and be careful picking them. Spin them good on the car if you can and watch for wobble. Pull them off the wreck with a breaker bar and 19 mm socket and load them up. Wheel the barrow the 1/4 mile from the back of the yard and try to talk them out of charging for the rotted tires. Pay your $60, take them home and soak them in wheel cleaner. For the caked on brake dust, scrub the hell out of them until your hands ache. Then get some epoxy primer and Preval spray cannisters and try not to breath the fumes. Coat them with finish coat acrylic enamel in Volvo paint code 130. Be careful of sags using thin multiple coats! Simple, no. Cheap and effective, yes.

        www.aaarims.com has refinished rims for a very fair price - about half the 'new' cost.
