Tires are motorcycle and are easy to find. The rims are hard to find

Wheels are the tough part, they are very prone to rust. I obtained perfect tread copy tires from Coker, expensive, but a very nice product.

Hi,

I just sent a PM about this. I am needing a lunette for my K-38 and I have a former student that is in the precision machining program at State Technical College of Missouri. He needs a project for next semester. If I can get plans he can make them using their water jets and other milling machines. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

I've got Dave's original sketch here as a PDF. It is quite rough but all the information is there.

This system wont let me post up a PDF, and I can't convert to jpg, so just send me an e-mail at

gordon@dodge.org.uk


and I'll reply with it attached.
