This question is more for a friend, and Ive sourced out three sets. The best set has no curb rash or corrosion, are silver painted and have good hubcaps.
Personally I dont think they are worth that much, but before I give any advice, I'd like more opinions.
The plan is to strip the paint off them and polish. A little bit

too much work IMO, but hey, Im sure they'll turn out real nice.
Keep in mind I'm in Southern Ontario, right in the middle of the dreaded Salt Belt. So nice examples are getting harder to come by.
