I am looking for a set of Rupp Turbine wheels 4" fronts and 5" rears for my '63 Grand Prix. Any ideas what I will expect to pay? Don't have to be as new but should be restorable.
Thanks
Phil

$250-$400. Undamaged rear's are hard to come by.

Good Morning Ron!!!!
Thanks, that gives me a ballpark figure to work with, I have been offered a set with some slight fin damage on one front and the rears look good, (need rechroming though)for USD330 so they sound fair. What can the fins be repaired with ? epoxy? It appears to be only cosmetic by the photos I've been sent.

Thanks to all who have helped. I have found a set that appear to be in Ok condition.
Merv, I am bidding on the spindles the seller with those turbines has for sale as they are '63 vintage ones.
Cheers
Phil
