    A while back I saw a post about these, I Found some old catalogs and thought you guy might want the correct answers to the post. Just look at the price in 1970.

    I'd like a pair of the 14x7 and pair of 15x8 chrome reverse for chevy
     
  8. I feel I have been to a LOT of swap meets, parts auctions and car shows. I have never seen a pair of these traction bars. They are really cool! But I wonder if they had a breakage problem.

    I once seen a Magnesium set go for $2400, or was it just an old Chrome set of Ansen's for $24, can't remember now!
    There's a handful of HAMBER's casting some great pieces at there home base shop's, I have a bunch of Aluminum Bell housings, empty trans cases, etc, I would donate to the recasting project.................

    I'd take a set of the bars, a set of the vw et mags and a couple cans of bronze touch up paint, so when you guys are ready to order let me know and maybe we can get a group rate !! :D:D:D:D

    I have the mags, and touch up but no bars, looking at maybe having to make some look a likes using bent Aluminum & plates instead of waiting for a founder to cast production. Any body have it in with Obrien Truckers? Maybe they would like to cast a hundred or so?

    I'm in Ohio. I can do Zelle, PayPal or wire transfer. Would prefer Zelle as I've had some not so good experiences with PayPal lately.

    I dumped PP 4 years ago, don't trust Zelle, don't think there's buyer protection, could be wrong. If a HAMBER, in good standing, in Ohio would pic them up for me I would pay them for there troubles?

    I agree. I honestly don't like any of these pay apps anymore as there is no buyer protection. I work in Centerville, oh but live in Xenia,oh.

    Bound to be someone around those parts. I have to head to Springfield sometime soon, but don’t have an exact date yet. Someone should be able to get them picked up for you.

    They aren't going anywhere. Don't trust selling anything on marketplace so would rather them go to a good home from someone on here. In the meantime, I'll get them out of the barn and get some fresh pictures as well.

    Hey Bandit, if you're going to use this forum to sell your parts, why don't you at least fill out your profile?
