1929 D40 complete axles, brakes, rims, wheels etc..

I am replacing both front and back axles. As far as I can tell they are both complete including brakes, streering and all connecting rods.

I also have 6 wood 19 wheels. 4 are on the car, with tires and rims and caps. 2 rims are in need of rebuild with out rings.

I would like to $375 for everything to pay for new spring.

The rims are still on the car but will be coming off in the next week. I can forward pics this weekend.

unfortunately I didn't get the car complete. I have spent the last year trying to figure out where to go with it. Since I have kids safety becomes a priority.
So my plan is to keep the car looking original to the vast majority of people.
I've sold or given most of the parts to restorers.

Off topic but I am running a 36 chevy axles so I can use modern rims and tire sizes.
