Damaged junk 8 lug
 

WTB I'm looking for an 8 lug center drum (any year) & 8 lug steel rim, for a decorative art project. Front or rear, doesn't matter, perefer damaged junk. at low cost. as it won't be functional on a vehicle. Drum surface out of spec or damage is ok. Rim edge bent or real rusty, OK! I Would like the parts that you normally see when mounted on a car, to look good or, could be cleaned up & detailed. Lug nuts or center cap a plus but not necessary. If you're close to Tampa Fl. even better!

I think I still have the one I used to mount tires on wheels with. It'll be rough but if I still have it, you can have it for the cost of shipping. PM me if interested.

Interested, PM Sent!

Junk 8 lug
 

WTB I'm looking for an 8 lug center drum (prefer the later long rib style) & 8 lug steel rim, for a decorative art project. Front or rear, doesn't matter, one that is out of spec that would need to be relined or damaged is OK, as it won't be functional on a vehicle. Rim edge bent or real rusty, OK! I Would like the parts that you normally see when mounted on a car, to look good or, could be cleaned up & detailed. Lug nuts or center cap a plus but not necessary. If you're close to Tampa Fl. even better!

Are you willing to share what it's for?

Your request prompted me to do some thinking and inspired me to perhaps do a clock - with the 8 lug as the face and hands that emulate the hands on the clock in the dash of my '63. I think that would be a cool piece of art for the garage.

My neighbor might have a wheel or two that would fit the bill.

Keith, funny you mentioned clock, as years ago at a used wheel cover dealer I found a 1967 Corvette bolt on wheel cover, and bought it for a small amount. When I got it home I saw that a small part of the di-cast mounting area was broken off. So, I made it into a garage clock.
But to answer your question, I always loved the look of the 8 lug Pontiac wheel and wished it had been available on the GTO.
In addition to a wall clock or other type of tribute to the Pontiac 8 lug wheel, it could be used as a front over my air hose reel, or be incorporate with my old Judge spoiler, or hood tach. The possibilities are endless! But, I guess I'd just like to own one as kind of a Pontiac collectable item. Regardless of the condition.
