Loud exhausts are about the only thing they pick on. If it's illegal in Australia, chances are it's OK here!

This just gets better! I would rather the South Island but it's where ever I can get work at the time. But I would rather be South. What kind of things could you help with?

Sorry man, didn't remove them from the car before it went to the crusher. I began to remove the rear skirt/bumper then found it was half rotten so left it on the car...Didn't look bad in the pictures, but it was bad close up Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Nice. Are they slightly different colours or is it just the light?

Nup, they are slightly different....Turns out my car is wrong His car has never been painted and although it's crazy cracked to hell, it's a noticeably darker red. I guess the colour match wasn't 100% when mine was painted Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Haha yeah, a battle indeed...That makes 4 sets of Simmons now Funny thing is, I went to the shop in Avondale last Monday to view them before bidding and the guy in the store had no idea they were on Trademe? They were for sale on the shop floor for $455 which I could have purchased then and there but because I'm such a nice guy I told him they were already on Trademe...Then I end up paying more than double what they originally wanted.....Oh well Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That guy is an absolute tosser.....He wouldn't answer my question in either auction about what name is stamped into them. The guy who bought the wheels, has left him bad feedback for another auction which seemed to turn bad....I wouldn't trust him with my rusty wheel barrow. Quote: Originally Posted by weetee [View Post] I know of a set of 15" HDT aeros , what they worth to ya ? They're not in Hamilton are they? It all depends (to me at least) what brand they are...will either have HDT, ROH or Cheviot stamped somewhere near the valve hole...I've already got a set of 15" ROH stamped Aero's, but would like a set of HDT 15" Aero's for my collection.....eventually The 16's look nicer...and are worth about 6 times as much Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

^That's good buying, I assume you've purchased them here in NZ? You won't buy them out of Aussie for that price On eBay a decent set of 4 average around $3,000 but like you say, much bigger market there too... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
