Could that be right?
The last run for Halibrand was in 2000?

Where's patrickt? Does he own a set?
I think we can 'challenge' him to get a set

I'm here, and mostly I'm thinking that ERAChas has a bogus set of wheels. You know, like the Rolex watches that you can buy from guys carrying suitcases down by Battery Park.

I think it was the early 2000's, say around 2003-2004, but that's what I heard. No factual evidence to back it up.

I can't believe wheels that will cost about $3,000 +/- per set will be popular:

a. in this economy,
b. during the Holidays, and
c. not many see the benefit beyond the Trigos they already own.

I hear you but aren't there some purdy cammers being assembled right now?

Maybe you're right. Mag wheels for the replica crowd. What was I thinking?


Come on, now!

Maybe one of the CSX/SPF dealers, ERA and/or Kirkham (or whatever manufacturer) would like to have a set or two in inventory for future customers.

Say, those three Kirkhams that will be built with SOHC engines, one twin tubrocharged and one fully polished. Darren?

I might be interested in investing in the extra sets needed to fill the order. I'm sure they will sell over time. I would be more interested in a new mold for 17's. Darren

Darren,
If you're saying what I think you're saying, that's HUGE!!!
So even if they only run 15's, you're in for perhaps more than one set?

I'm on the fence at this point. What is the approximate pricing?

Thanks,
David

In response to ERA Chas' question on another thread...

I'm expecting a reply from Bob today or tomorrow and I left a message with Fran yesterday.

What was I thinking? I could have really gotten Rodknock with some April Fools mags

Though I know Patrick would disagree, I'm that dumb and/or gullible.

I think this entire thread has been an April fools joke.

Bob will reply but it's obvious you're on Kress' 'ignore' list.
