Add a couple of curved ash retainers. Its been done before!
That will hold the wheel in the right place. I'm sure that Simon will be able to knock something up if you send him a drawing.

WOW - that looks amazing John.

Well done and warmest congrats!

I notice that Wild Mogs now have a racing team too!!

Nero is looking very distinctive indeed - just what a MOG should be!

Well worth the wait laugh2

So it has Dave! An excuse to pop into the factory next time I’m down.

I might well ask Simon if he could make something up for me.

THE Wild Mogs decals? I never got round to taking them off after our trip to Caramulo. A job to do over winter I think!

Just wondering if the one used for the wire wheels might fit.

Jays, The spare should bolt to the studs protruding from the brackets on the wooden frame

Looking great.

Is it the angle or is the rear wheel not centred?

The angle! After having the Five link rear fitted, the wheel is now nicely centred. 😋

Ray.....there is just a threaded hole in the metal plate to take the centre fitting. It may be different on your earlier car. Mind you, you have given me an idea!
