Original Bugeye Rim and Tire

I have an original Bugeye rim and tire that was the spare in my 60 Bugeye.
I have removed it from the boot and plan on replacing it with a VTO 5.5x13.
This will match the 4 VTO's I have on the car.
So if anyone is in need of a Bugeye Rim in excellent condition and a Tire that has never touched the ground let me know.
I can get a VTO 5.5x13 from Acme (Hap) for $154 and a Sumitomo HTRT4 175/70 R13 on Ebay for $74 and I will have a complete matched 5 tire set.
 
And Bill, that way you will not have to carry extra lug nuts just for the original BE spare. BTW: said BE wheel was spun and is true.

Ok, I'll take a stab: $15 plus shipping? (paid $60 for the last set of 4 I bought in an open eBay auction)
 
So..... No then? I figured I'd be in for $50-75 depending on shipping and that seemed fair....
