the showman 4,074 #1 Posted November 5, 2017 Went to a bring and buy sale this morning organised by a stationary club I belong to, it was a complete waste of time as there was only a handful of people there. It was held at the Hassocks garden centre so the traditional breakfast was the best part of the visit . During the time i spent there the London to Brighton veteran car run was on and they trundled past the gate, it was quite cold and they all looked frozen. Norman asked me to take my camera so here's a photo i took especially for him. 3 Triumph66, HeadExam and pmackellow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeadExam 1,783 #7 Posted November 5, 2017 Looks like they should have worn more cold weather gear, i.e. hats and scarves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #8 Posted November 6, 2017 Forgot about these, found them in the car. 4 brand new wheels, tyres and tubes with rubber straight valves for £15. Thought I'd better have them just in case. 3 HeadExam, Stormin and Alan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #9 Posted November 6, 2017 Good find. Did Pam put them in the car? Handy for building a twin axle trailer to tow behind you know what. Maybe a swan neck low loader. 1 the showman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #11 Posted November 6, 2017 Looks like the wheels are bolted to a hub? Grease nipples fitted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #12 Posted November 6, 2017 They are split rims and have a small hub with bearings but no nipples and look a bit flimsy, i'll see if i can use them when the time comes, it just that they were 4 inch which is what i was after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 71 #13 Posted February 10, 2018 Those wheels are just the ticket for keeping a blower out of the gravel. 3 Stormin, the showman and HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #16 Posted February 10, 2018 Will 4 be enough for you, Alan? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan 1,273 #17 Posted February 10, 2018 Yes, 4 should do Norm. I'm not that heavy. Making the trailer with 2 or 4 wheel conversion. Quick change by pulling out a few R clips. Just something different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #18 Posted February 11, 2018 One of the steamer men at Biddenden had a trailer that flat packed. Good idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
