[TR] Hoffmann Bearings

[James Henningsen]

I had Hoffman bearings still in my TR4a in the front wheel hubs.  The previous owner of 45 Years told me they were never changed from new.  I replaced but kept them in a bag to keep with the car.  They still looked good too, but decided to put new Timkens instead.

The google says they were bought out in '69 so I'm assuming they were the original bearings.   (I guess they could have been NOS for sometime after that, or kept the product name for a while).    Either way they weren't in bad shape.
