    Hendon told me that the tyre is from a Percival Proctor – other than that I’m waiting for Cosford to contact me with possible more info – the plot deepens……

    Yes there are more than one out there.
    Purchased this recently, been in touch with Hendon/Cosford who don’t seem to be able to put a previous adaptation to this wheel, altho i have asked about the possibility of it belonging to a glider. Apparently it came out of a farmers field in France years back. The alloy strut has remnants of green paint still attached and serial numbers stamped on it, and ive managed to free up the wheel. Also a picture from a Cheffins auction from March 2016 who were selling these wheels from the Bill Richards Collection – advertised as 3 small aircraft wheels that sold for £150.

    New to the forum so hello to you all….
