SHOW QUALITY CHROME WHEELS

I have a set of newly chromed wheels for the drum brake Toronado. They are triple plated and show quality. The wheels were professionally restored at a wheel shop in California, where that is all they do. The hub was seperated from the outer wheel, triple plated and polished to an incredible shine. The outer wheel was straightened and painted. The two parts were mated again in a jig so the wheels are true, then welded back together. The result is a beautiful set of wheels that would dress up your Toronado.
$900 for a set of 4
Sorry, but I can't post any pictures on this web site, it says the file is too big. Contact me at toroguy@msn.com if you are interested and I will email you pictures.

The maximum picture size for the board is 256k. That's plenty large to show the quality. Just resize the images below 256k.

If this is still an issue there are some options...
1) if you have a picture hosting service (Flickr, Kodak, etc.) you can upload them there then post a link using the Img tags above. Here is an example of how you would do it:

Code: Select all

[img]http://www.toronado.org/coppermine/albums/40th_homecoming/normal_MVC-094F.JPG[/img]

This would show the picture in the body of the post:

2) You can download any number of free programs to do it, such as Picasa (a free image organizing and editing program from Google - http://picasa.google.com/), if you have Windows XP you can download the PowerToy, which allows resizing with a right-click on the image in Windows Explorer (Look for the download link for Image Resizer on the right side of hte screen - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/Down ... rtoys.mspx). You may be able to do it in Paint (Windows, built-in) or Preview (Mac, built-in).

PM me if you want more help!

I now have a set of disc brake chrome wheels for sale. This set received the same attention as the set of drum brakes. They are incredible!

69 Toro, the above listing was posted nearly 9 years ago. I doubt those wheels are still for sale.
