I would ask a Mod and ask them to put it in the wanted section in here, or just post again in there. Also you could try and use a selling site such as Ebay

If they are really nice, I would just tuck them away in the attic. Most people dont care for them and so they wont bring a lot anyway. But, because they arent sought after right now, most will be gotten rid of, so in the years to come when people are doing restorations on them a nice set will probably be hard to find.

Actually he might only want to put 2 slicks on then buy some skinny's for the front tires.
