17" serpents
Have decided to take the plunge and go look for a set of serpent wheels.
It was even I missed out on the sale of them or felt I couldn't justify the prices some sets were going for. Finally found some on the bay and they were dropped off Thursday. Took them down for a refurb and powder coat, either ready later today( sat.) or Monday. The total cost( don't tell the misses) for the purchase/ chemical wash/ repair scuffs and powder coat paint job baked on and paint the centre caps comes to 400 pounds. Thought at first that I had spent a bit too much, but once I get them back looking like new wheels and on the car, sure it will seem worth every penny. Still probably wont tell the misses though:eek::eek::eek: Steve. |

Nice choice .... they do look good and especially if refurb'd :drool4:
Pictures? I will look out for you when I visit Letchworth! Cheers John |
Just tell swimbo that someone in the club wanted to get rid of them and you offered £20 for them and he accepted. Dib dib dob.

You really can't beat Serpents IMO :drool4:
2nd best for me would have to be Meteors :cool: On the lookout myself....and as for expense, I won't be telling the missus either:getmecoat: |
I have a set of each available in Greater Manchester!

@Handyjackdaniels....have you any pictures? |
I've got serpents and they really set the car off. Truth be known, they were the thing that really sealed the deal for me when I got the car. I knackered one last year in a pothole and it cost me £80 to get it repaired and powdercoated and looked awesome. I unfortunately have a tendency to curb them though. Not badly, just with potholes and stones and stuff and they end up looking a bit tatty fairly quickly. I wish I was better at keeping this car neat and tidy.
Maybe I'll try washing it some time. But probably not. |
