Heck, I could do them painted for less than $100........I better hit the
pick and pull......What would be the proper paint to use? I mean, to be
correct for a restoration......

I believe they;re available for around $100-$130 in many places - but tha
might be exch at some places. and those are painted - chromed ones (yuck)
and around $180.
If you sell them fr $100 that;s probably a good price - make sure you have
some profit built in. Many suggest 30% or so -

So, What is the finish on the Bundts? Is it paint or powdercoating? A
friend of mine has a whole stack of them I was wondering about restoring
and
reselling. I have podercoating equipment and a bead blast setup
available
to use.
Done right, looking new, would they be worth $100 each, outright, with
no
core charge, to anyone? I've been thinking of buying the equipment for
myself but haven't been sure if I could make it pay for itself.

I spent a few minutes with them today. Does not seem to be bubbles
from behind, as there is no great dimensionality that goes to depth.
It is surface schmutz that rubs off with elbow grease. At least the
one bit I worked on.

YEP, you can send your scruffy bundts to Performance Products and get
a set of shiny wheels back. Something like $400 for the pleasure
They will not accept chromed wheels as cores.
Your 'pitting' looked an awful lot like bubbling from behind.
That, I've seen.
