That bar is from a late 80's - early 90's set that was sold under the Jack Lalanne, Legacy, and Matador names. Chinese, but nice set, the plates were machined beautifully on the rims and hubs, here's how the plates looked -..
Guy wants $60. I would have to drive about an hour to pick it up.Olympic bar with spiraled sleeves. Looks a bit rusty, but I don't mind.
Rust isn't too big a deal, usually steel wool will get the majority of it off, and I use a rust removal product if it is really stubborn, but still will clean up pretty good. Good find, $60 would be a good buy. How long is it?
This brings up a question I always had. Why is it that the 45 became the standard weight plate instead of the 50?
Nearer to 20kg, which is the Olympic standard..
Let me know if you find any fake plate sets I can use for YouTube videos.
