Vintage Minor Register

Hi Dave,

I'd be happy to releve you of them as I need a set of "working" tyres to move my rolling chassis around on. At the moment the chassis is just on the rims and I hate to move it too much like this.

I've tried the guy's in Devon, they only make the boss f...

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year, and many enjoyable miles of vintage motoring! I'm currently rebuilding a steering wheel for an M/D/F type MG (a flat spoke one) that unfortunatley has no centre boss.
