They have been trying to sell the company for quite a while. Hopefully the new owners will support us as well as Brad did.

Mel Zeiger replied to the topic pinto based wire wheel conversion in the forum Chevy/Ford Kits 14 years, 3 months ago
I just changed over the the wire wheels from MG Magic. They look good and no clearance issues. They use lug nuts, so no lead hammer to carry around.
I had looked at a set that used an adapter and real knock offs but the adapter does add depth and can cause issues. Decided to take the easier route.

Wheels are at the mechanic shop and I will have the tires mounted and installed on Mrs. Peel on Tuesday.
So baskets will be up for sale right after the new wheels are in place. As mentioned 4 are in good shape, 1 is poor.
I will entertain all reasonable offers -

Hadn’t given much thought to selling price……..How about $50 each plus actual shipping, one needs rechroming or painting $25 plus acutal shiping. I will split them up but minimum of 2.
They new ones should arrive Friday and I will have them mounted next week (wk 8/1). -

Mel Zeiger replied to the topic Rechrome or replace in the forum General Discussion 14 years, 5 months ago
Thanks Paul,
Once we get down to Florida I will check the condition of the bumper chrome. I know the uprights need to be replaced. MG Magic is a little less expensive for the uprights.
My car has 60″ bumpers which MG Magic no longer stocks so I am hoping that I can polish the bumpers and just replace the uprights.
Rechroming can cost about $8…[Read more] -
