[DeTomaso] New Campagnolo GT5 and GT4 Wheels purchase

Mon Mar 14 13:39:15 EDT 2011

I offered Billet alum. 17 and 18 wheels made in the US at the Boyd's
facility for prices lower than already available Campy repos and 10
spokes ( same designs ) with a variety of custom features/sizes and
NOBODY bought anything.

Maybe it was me, maybe it was because it was coming from Boyd's, maybe
it was the economy.

Either way,

Good Luck
