Default Re: Cragar SS rim repair

You need to start going to some swap meets. I often see used Crager's for sale there. Flea markets sometimes have them too. I go to one every Sat Morn and there is a guy that brings a flat bed trailer overloaded with used mags and tire sets.

I would not mess with trying to rechrome such a common older mag. there has to be thousands of them around the country. If you can pic them up cheap, I bet someone on here can come up with the one you need before long.

What is the thought of restoring an old set of what appears to be Torque Thrusts? The aluminum centers are not bad, the chrome edges are pretty pitted. Were they common enough, or are they worth the redoing?
