[Spridgets] FREE Wheels!! Must go

[David Woerpel]

Hi folks we're moving soon and the time has come to get rid of some 
wheels.  They are original Rubery Owens 13" x 3.5" vented (round holes) 
steel wheels not wire for 1958-1963(?) Mk I Sprite.  I have a set of 
four slotted steel wheels for a Mk II Sprite/Midget Mk I as well.  I 
really hate to send these to the scrap heap.  Pay the shipping (which I 
may be able to get a discount on from my friend at the local tire 
shop).  Must be gone or spoken for by the July 
20th.                       The following is my list:

*Vented wheels:*

To car - AN5-15150, April 1959, riveted with short ribs.   Quantity9

- AN5-15151 > 39223, May 1960, spot welded center section with short 
ribs.(Wheel in my possession is also reinforced***)  Quantity1

- AN5-39224 > HAN7-26240 (Midget GAN2-17166), Welded with long ribs  
Quantity 5

            Design change: Vent holes moved – no vent holes opposite 
brake inspection hole;

(Recognized as a potential weakness). One wheel is reinforced.

???*Riveted with long rib.*Have no clue what this is from.Brake hole and 
vent hole

not centered in relation to each other, rim is Rubery Owen & Co.  Quantity 1

*
Slotted wheels:*

- HAN7-26240 (Midget GAN2-17166) onwards, ventilated wheels replaced 
with plain slotted steel wheels with no brake adjustment holes. 4

***"Reinforced" refers to center section having been bead welded to rim 
along its length.

Save the wheels!  Please?
