Looking for suggestion on where to sell rear wheels for mid-70's 1st gen sedan

I had the weird occurrence of buying a tow dolly trailer that looked like a Mastertow from the photos, but was in fact, hand-made. It had a pivot platform and performed flawlessly for thousands of miles, until someone with a crappy car model (I have security photos) ran over the driver's side wheel.

This caused the ... oh wait. I should skip back in this story! The wheels used were from a 1st Gen Honda Civic Sedan. Rear hubs and axles. Welded onto the frame. I know because before the drunk piece of garbage ran it over, I had just replaced one hub/drum and all the bearings on both sides.

Before scrapping it, I removed the hubs/drums with the bearings and seals intact, and naturally the rims/tires. I have one Honda original hubcap (the other got lost when one tire blew way back in the day).

I just figured some Civic Sedan owner wanted to have a ready-to-go spare wheel with tire. And or someone might want a pair of hubs. I could have just listed these on ebay or FB Marketplace, but figured I'd come here first.

I’d post it in the “for sale” section on the forum and whatever local classifieds site is popular in your area.

I have no idea what they are worth. I have an older toyota, and i know with that disastrous 'Cash for Clunkers' program, a lot of the older cars were turned into scrap metal. So out of empathy for mid-70's Honda Civic Sedan owners, I thought I'd drop the info here, first.

revisiting this thread. Open to suggestions. I don't need them and I'm not a d*ck, so whatever you suggest. I'm not doing this to get rich. I'd be pleased to pass them along to a hobbyist that can use them.

Central Texas area.

See if you can find a forum for older civics. This started out as a 7th gen civic forum so lots of the older crowd will be located in a different forum. Hope this helps.

I'm not a civics-guy. I happen to have these parts which I am trying to get rid of. I opened the thread in the older civics forum and it was moved here by a mod.

Got it. Did. About to scrap them. Just taking up needed space at this point.
