That sounds wonderful right about now, especially since we haven’t taken our inaugural summer vacation yet. Unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to get out there for another month or so, but that’s definitely the best option. Thank you so much for your help and advice! You rock.

I would be eternally grateful and my life’s work would be complete. Someone help the poor boy out.

You’d think, but I’ve called like eight junkyards so far here in Utah and no joy.

Just stumbled across these guys: http://get-primitive.com/wheels-rally-race-street/466-bratbrumbygl-wheels.html They claim to be compatible with the 4x140. Think it’s worth checking out?

Thanks for the support! I’ve got four to roll on, just feel a little nervous daily driving an older car without a spare. Most of the junkyards I’ve called won’t acknowledge the existence of the Brat, which is a shame. I’ll keep my eyes open and keep everyone updated on the project!

Just bought an 82 Brat and I’m stoked! Unfortunately it’s missing the spare tire. I visited a few local shops to no avail. I realize I should just pony up and do a 5 lug conversion but I want to do as faithful a restoration as possible. Any advice on compatible wheels and where they can be found?
