Default New Basket Weaves <56K Un-OK>

I recently was scouring Craigslist, and found something that peaked my interest:



So I picked them up for $100. They weren't in the best condition.

Took them home, and stripped them down:



Then polished up the lips and painted them:







Some new valve stems and all the appropriate socket caps and centercap:



And a quick trip to Firestone later:





Tadaaaaaaaa. And yes, I am aware that my car needs a bath.
