The guys that can make the wheels are too gun-shy to start the venture on the speculation of making the sales. Sooooooo, with both sides playing the "you go first, no you go first, no you..." game, the deal will never, ever, ever, ever, ever get done. That dog is dead -- time to just bury her in the backyard.

Who said the deposit is five grand? And the deposit is NOT to "fund the venture", it is to assure that the "buyers" really want the wheels and are not just stroking the idea.

The principal in this proposed venture can likely buy me, you and most of the people here......he just does not want to sit on a lifetime supply of mag Halibrands.

Besides, they don't look good on beige cars!

Transmission complete.
