A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Clean alum rims here are fetching $.70/lb here in scrap.

 I've got 4 nice 23# factory chebby 5star truck wheels I can't even sell for $100 (with 2sets of centers, lugs and covers).  I just can't bring myself to junk perfect fine wheels that fit nothing I own.

Are those buick wheels nice or something? Or are the tires a common/overpriced size?

If they were looking at scrap they should have heisted the cats. Or maybe just get a job like most normal people.
