403 Barn Find!
I was curious about these wheels, I had a few of the TD/TE Alvis in the past and they had the winged fasteners not the type shown in the photo which I have to confess I had forgotten where an alternative design.
Bristol as far as I am aware never offered wire wheels as an option which means either this was a special order or someone has changed the hubs at a later date.
That is of interest because it may mean that disc brake conversions may be possible that do not rely on parts from a 406 being available.The downside could be that these splined hubs come from something equally rare.
