Post by mk1 »

I'm looking for a Wood rim wheel like this one.

Does anyone have one that they would consider parting with?

Thanks for looking.

Are you looking for the Lotus 7 which was originally fitted with the Springhall, although I believe it was slightly dished and 14". I don't believe they had a metal rim and were considered dangerous as the wheel might splinter and pierce the body?

Although a Les Leston - you have probably seen this for sale on the Facebook post:
