I can second what Lang said about measuring your wheelstud and bolt patterns accurately. Through bitter experience! Rootes had a tie up with Simca in France late fifties, did all sorts of strange things, like metric thread bolts with Whitworth sized heads. Don't take it as a given that an early fifties are interchangeable with even a five year later model. Dave

Your better to die trying than live on your knees begging

looking at the photo's it looks like the disc on the wheel is just a flat plate of steel so it would be very easy to make a spare wheel if you cant find one
Some times it pays not to over think things to far

It looks SO MUCH like my 1950 Austin K2. (The fold out windscreen, the foot vent, the rear of the cab)

Anyone know if Gordy ever advanced with his jigger?
I remembered following the posts going back a few years and until charlie chapmans last post, had almost forgotten about it until I saw that.
Gordy's last post was on 08 Oct 2017.
Looked like he had a pretty good handle on it at the time.
Cheers, Dave
