I can do them as long as there are no major chunks missing. I am in Michigan however and shipping would be an issue. If you would like, send me some pics so I can see the condition. I charge $600.00 a set plus shipping.

Pete @ Fbodywarehouse I believe also offers this service. He's in TN so again, shipping.

You could do them yourself as they're not all that difficult to do. Here's the page I followed when doing mine...

here they are on my bird, thanks again mr. mongo.






i think fred spends around 6-8 hours per wheel, so to do them right would not be so easy to do. 
plus you need the parts, tools, paint, supplies, have mongo do them.
