Zoomy color combo! Gawd I love those seats!
Matt - those are Rudge wheels, which were put on some Jags, Mercedes sports and race cars, and Porsche 356s. It's a knock-off hub on a steel wheel, and they're actually kind of heavy. But real ones are worth a ton I'm told. My old Seattle co-worker's 356 had them on from new. The car is still in semi-rusted pieces, and I told him sell the wheels and pay for the paint!

This might get better traction if you started a new thread in classified, it'll get kind of buried here in the BaT thread.drennan_1 wrote: ↑26 Jan 2022, 12:11 Not BAT but here's my 2004 Passion Red/Atacama V70R up for auction: https://carsandbids.com/auctions/r4V8QV ... v70r?c=all

I don't remember who made them, but Twin-Cam MGAs had knockoff steelies too.BlackBart wrote: ↑26 Jan 2022, 17:15 Zoomy color combo! Gawd I love those seats!

It's my understanding the Jag wheels were alloy, but the Twin Cam wheels were steel pin drive.
There's an outfit over Yonder making 'replicas' from alloy, with a spline hub adapter that converts the mounting system to the pin drive configuration. Kind of a long way around for the look, in my mind.
And a bit spendy, something like $2500 for the kit.

A fair amount of rust for a west coast car.

Hemmings, not BaT. Very late 1969 122 2-door in the Netherlands. Not in love with the Grampa visor, but I'm sure that comes off.
Tidy, some crazing in the seats, dash pad peeling up, and only a single SU (?).

Also several 1800s, a 544, and some newer cars.
