Nice wheel!

I don't have a wheel for you but do have one that I wanted to make into a wooden wheel. I have removed the outer steel rim and reduced it to 15 inch dia and re-welded it to the spokes. It has been sitting like that for many years waiting its turn.

Do you have a website showing how you made yours?

Wow! that is impressive! Cottage industry?

I agree, superb quality and very interesting series of photos. However, if you are planning doing MGA wheels you'll have stiff competition with Mike Lempert who does absolutely magnificent wood rimmed ones............mike

I know of one for sale (a complete wooden one that was on a Twin Cam) if you are interested. Price being asked is c. 400 USD
