Hi Chris – it does look like a Whitley wheel. Might it be available by any chance? Thanks to Trolley Aux for the ID.

Just found on another list I have
AH 2038 =
Whitley
Beaufighter
Beaufort

It looks a bit small for a Whitley, maybe Whitley Project can confirm or deny

Using a fine grade wire wool you need to clean the wheel, there you may find a number starting AH & 4 digits or AHO this should define the aircraft type

The Dunlop wheel is a AH2184 commonly used on Spitfires and fairly common in circulation.
