Not sure about this, but I suspect you're not going to get too many bites sending people to a password-protected photo page.

I could be off here, but I think a lot of folks here are not going to join FaceBook just to see your pictures.

Try this. Use the 'go advanced' tab at the bottom of the post. Then go to the paper clip (attachments) In the 'manage attachments' browse to your home pc 'pictures' album and upload them here. There is a max file size the CO server will accept. It will also resize pics automatically to fit if they are within certain parameters..
Once you've uploaded them, hit the submit button

EDIT: ah, there it is now.... You got it fixed!

Those are pretty rare wheels, esp. complete with trim rings and center caps (caps the same as the similar era Toronados). I'd say they are worth a great deal to someone looking for them. I bought a set from a fellow CO member some years back (gonna say 2007), and have not seen another set for sale since. I paid $500 (I think it was) for a set of 5 rims only. In today's "ecomony", I wouldn't let them go for any less than $100 a piece with the trim rings and caps, assuming they are in nice shape.

Sure looks simiilar (but for the number of doors) to the car in this link, by the way, which mentioned the rims specifically and how the lady who bought the car new insisted on them (she had good taste!).

Goes to show that Oldsmobile luxury cars can wear dogbowls with trim rings and look great doing it. Most other luxury cars can't pull that off, though Olds was always able to do it.

They are not correct for a '65, but they look REALLY nice one one, esp. without the trim rings. Very sinister. For someone who likes the dogdish look, they are FAR nicer looking than your typical set of '65 or even '66 style dogdishes (and the 15 inch rims do a nicer job of filling up those big wheelwells).

Of course, but oldsrocket88 has a '65 in his profile pic, and as he seemed to be "mulling" the idea, I was just saying they'd fit and look nice on his car as well.

They're 235/75/R15, fill up the wheel wells real nice (the higher profile looks better in my opinion) and have no rub issues.

Wow. I am very interested in the whole body. I have every single thing it needs here. I am in Ohio so coming there to get it will take some doing. I have a rollback but the time is the issue. Especially during the holidays. I will contact you if and as soon as I can work it out.
