82 Olds 98 Wire Wheels

I am in Australia and I am chasing a set of original wire wheels for a 1982 Olds 98 Regency Brougham. I am prepared for the freight to Australia and to purchase the right ones but they must be good. Cheers & Merry Xmas from Aus

This guy has one for sale on eBay. It seems a little pricey and it is only one.
I think searching for parts is half the fun of owning a classic car.

This guy from Canada has a set for 1985 Olds 98. I doubt that they are the ones that you are looking for.

Wow. $80 for the ebay set versus $450 for the set offered by Paladin 31. Nothing against Mr. Paladin, but money is money, and I think I know which way I'd go!

If I happen to need a part and have been searching for a while, I tend to bite the bullet and pay what is needed.
With that said someone who is patient and waits can save big bucks.

The one on ebay is for 1 hubcap with no locks or hardware. Which is about the same considering Paladin31 has a set of 4 new in the box with locks and hardware to attach. It's about the same price. Just trying to help it just depends if you need a set or if you need one. I know Paladin31 is a good guy with good parts and maybe negotiable.

$450.00 for NOS with all hardware should be a buyers dream come true!

Wish I could afford them for a rainy day ...

Even if they never even saw a car & were only spread out on a bed once in awhile to roll around with it.
