To me, they look like a set of S4 flats that have been custom machined to look like Club Sports. However, the "V" notch looks too distinct, the real deal has a softer curve.

If you want bring it by and we will throw it up on a lift so you can get a good look at it.
Good excuse to see yours running too!
I dont know what kind of wheels are on it, but they look good to me.
This is an OB right Greg? So I dont have to sweat the timing belt/waterpump?

don't worry about the beer man, just come on by.
It should not be a interference motor, still do not want it to break though.

Greg,
It is not an OB in any way because it has spoilers and it is not CIS injected so there is no definition that would make this car an OB (OB in my world = Original Body style...OB in RL world = Original Body style 78/79 which are also CIS injected and were once referred to as Old Buggers)... S, yes, FOR SURE. OB, not even close...
Jarrod,
check the pics again of the wheels there is one pic from the back of the car that is very telling as you can see some strangeness with the rear wheel like where it is actually painted... really strange!

I call anything before a S4 a ob, and I know many do not, oh well.

Greg,
Considering that the front and rear fenders on an S have holes in them that OB's don't and the rear qtr glass is different between the cars, not to mention the more obvious spoilers, calling an S an OB makes no sense as you could run in to some real parts issues...at some point by asking for the wrong thing, but whatever.
Michael,
I hope the car looks and runs as good as the ad says and that you are able to make the trade! That would be outstanding!
