Re: [T3] How much are original Sprintstars worth?

["Mysterious J" <mysteriousj@snet.net>]

So...I guess the concensus is that I should be able to get a set of original
4-lug Sprintstars in restorable condition for about $250?  I guess that
means the set on thesamba.com for $449 (2 4 1/2", 2 5 or 5 1/2") wheels in
need of restoration (but presumably straight) are a bit overpriced?
