Hi,
I'm a newby. I nearly bought your clubby. Nice honest car... and the previous owner seemed like a sound bloke.
Anyway- if you want to loose the wheels I'm your man..can buy them or I have a set of very fresh 12" revolutions with decent tyres we could trade.

Let me know.

Regards,

desmoben1
No no no baby - Its not a "money pit"....its a "mini pit"!
