Art,
Thanks for taking the trouble to dig out that article. That self same
article appeared in the TR Register's magazine 'TR Action' and enlightened me
about what holds my wire wheels on. I just had a look through my back issues and
found it in the August 1992 edition. Curiously, TR Action credits 'Safety Fast'
the MG car club magazine as the source!!
Could it be those MG boys have been doing a bit of poaching?
