Default Autopower race roll bar for sale or trade

Hi, new guy here, I recently bought an 87 944s and it had an autopower race bar in it, the one without the removable diagonal. I took it out,because I dont like the lack of back seat access, and I would like to trade it for some 16" or 17" wheels, or I would take 400 OBO. I could kick in some cash for the right wheels. I would obviously need late offset wheels. The bar is in great shape, paint is great, and I have all the hardware. Here is the link to the manufacturer website. http://autopowerindustries.com/rollbars.asp I live in southern WI between Madison and Milwaukee. I would rather not ship, but can drive within reason. Let me know what you got,thanks!!

i am in pella. i honestly had not thought about getting rid of them, your post jsut caught my attention.

two of the wheels were stripped by the previous owner and it wouldnt take much to polish them. the other two are sratched and flaking pretty bad. the wheels themselves are in great shape but there is no doubt they will need refinished.

if we decide to trade, we could meet in anamosa iowa. it seems close to half way.

the wheel does appear to have a slight bend in the lip but it does not go into the bead itself and there are no scuffs where an impact occurred.

it it bothers you it wont offend me at all. these were purchased to be spray painted and used on the track and if you dont want them, thats where they will end up
