Yup. That is what my imagination puts in there to finish it off.

I am thinking of doing a pre-war light weight sport car - the narrow "spoke" wheels and tires look great here on your MG, and I think they would work for what I have in mind. I am reading the comments about availability, but there must be other ways around...

Is there an available source for something like those in 1/32? How about 1/24?

Have a look at George Turner models

http://georgeturnermodels.com

He has great 1/32 kits and in a month or so Pendleslot should have some scale 18" wire wheels to go with them :)

I haven't seen what Pendles plans to have manufactured. I'm hoping they follow Peter's example.

Not too quick Peter , I read a post that PST is looking at another supplier for his machine parts and if it prices out for him , he will be back making the popular ones.
Lets keep our fingers crossed for these great wheels.

Peter - a bit of chat on Slot Forum about the wheels - Pendleslot now own Pre Add and Penelope Pitlane. They posted some new wheels on Slot Forum including a new version of the PP vintage wheels.

After some discussion where Sean asked what we needed and request went out for scale 18" 19" and 20" wheels Sean mentioned they are planning to do some wheels which I think will come out around 19". While not as good as Peter Seager Thomas wheels in terms of scale to suit specific cars it will still be handy for all those classic sports and GP cars of the 30s 40s and 50s to have something that looks better.

I'm anxious to see what Pendles comes up with. Their existing Napier/Bentley wheels are ok but don't compare to Peter's. However, as Bob mentioned, Peter is looking at reintroducing his on a limited basis, at a premium price.

Peter I do hope you have some of these framed and hanging in your man cave area.
They are certainly worthy of a frame.
