SOLD! (as of
late January 2019)... FREE TO GOOD HOME AND WILL DELIVER LOCALLY:
"Four Toyo Extensa-A/S blackwall all-season tires, size 225/60R16,
from my 2005 Subaru Outback. I do not know how old or how many miles on these tires, but
they look very fresh, and have a ton of tread. They were on the car when I bought it at
the end of October 2018, and I have driven approximately 3,000 miles on them, before
taking them off of the car near the end of December 2018 (when my alternate set of black
steelies and tires were ready to go on)
Please note that I have noticed a screw head
stuck in one of the tires, but it has NOT leaked any air. I still have to get them removed
from the original Subaru alloy wheels (the wheels are NOT part of these deal, JUST the
tires), but here are PICTURES:http://www.shorelineantiqueautoconnection.com/ToyosFromTheSubyOutbackA.jpg

were generic replacement 15x6 steelies that I had custom gloss black powdercoated by

NO LONGER LOOKING FOR THESE ITEMS... (as
of summer 2021... sorry--asleep on the switch here getting this ad updated--we have found
what we were looking for--thanks for everyone's help!)...WANTED
Components for, I think, 87-96 Ford F150 & larger pickup truck
under bed spare tire carrier
We recently purchased a used 97 F250
from a private party, which uses the primitive early type swing down
cradle type carrier for the spare tireexcept that ours did not come with the
cradle parts nor the spare tire itself. Im not worried about finding a usable spare,
but would like to assemble a working factory spare tire carrier assembly thats
proper for this truck. I got under there and found that I do have a couple of the parts,
but need more of the major parts, like the cradle that the tire actually rests on, plus
that funky eye (or j-hook) bolt, and also the bolt that goes up
thru the center of the tire, and the plastic piece that the bolt threads into, that sits
on top of the tire. Any info or leads on where to find these partsthanks, Steve the
SAAC editor. UPDATE: I did a little more work and created a wanted
diagram (showing a lot of these things, in both diagram and image
presentation) that you can now view at the following link: http://www.shorelineantiqueautoconnection.com/97FordF250PickupSpareTireCarrier-DiagramOfStuffNeeded.jpg ... Contact

WANTED 14 diameter, 4x130 bolt pattern wheels
I
know this is a long shot posting this wanted ad here, but sometimes people know people
with parts, and so I think it never hurts to get the word out there
Im looking
to recapture some of the magic (ha ha) that I enjoyed on several occasions
with my former 69 Bug by putting together another interesting set of 14
diameter wheels (and then have some fun finding some cool tires to go with them after
that)
There were several aftermarket 14 mags sold back in the day
for four-bolt VW Bugs (the stock rim diameter is 15), and Ive owned a few over
the yearswhich, unfortunately have also gone onto other owners since then
From
research Ive done, there were also some specific Lancia wheels that
were 14 diameter with a 4x130 bolt pattern, but Im sure those are even harder
to find (but if you know of any sets, please let me know!)
Heres my
wanted ad on TheSamba.com that gives a few more details about what
Im looking for: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=2428044
