Chrome Budd Wheels/Please Help
Does anyone know if Chrome Budd wheels are still available?They were more popular in the drier states like SoCal,AZ,NV...I had some on a`70 C/30,sold it,the guy put them on a`71 wrecker,and now it`s mine.He didn`t keep them up and they finally started rusting.Not bad for around here,but I stayed after them.Not bad for wheels bought in`88.I had the Sr West Coast mirrors chromed and I knew he pulled them off the`70.They had a little rust on the heads(std replacement in ss available).He said he chucked them.He doesn`t like big mirrors(Ya like trucks or cars?).
Back to the Chromies...One is worse than the rest in the rear.The other three are presentable for an old unrestored wrecker,call it patina.I`d like a new set or just one rear.If anyone finds an old one around (front or rear) that has mostly good chrome,I`d like to buy it.I know once Alcoas came around in the`80s they took over.But,California had them all over the place.Please keep a look-out for them for me,please.I don`t want to go with Simulators.
