Gorgeous car, love the wheels... what are they?

[WMU 211G]

The centre cap badge just has 'GT' on them... other than that I've no idea! I like 'em too.... they look like 6'' x 10''s and I'm wondering if they do / did them in 5'' x 10'' as well. Looking at them again it strikes me they're almost miniature versions of those used on some '60s Lamborghinis / Maseratis etc.

i agree they do look like 6" wide rims, i think i saw some of these on ebay a few weeks back, i think i put a link to them in the ebay section on here actually.

 

i also agree they are very nice, unusual wheels are very cool!

Hi minicooper it was me you were talking with on sunday,I think I was also talking with your mother was I not,many thanks for your comments on my sons car.And yes I can confirm to you he came 1st in the 80's class,after a driven 350mile round trip 340 of those miles in the rain,I never thought I was going to get the little thing looking clean enough and I was also not feeling well it was more than hard work that day I have to say.It was such a shame with the weather for everyone,many thanks John

 

Thats right, Great to know the car came first!, You were also behind us on the way back for a few minutes, not sure if you can remember the BMW 5 series, S16WAN, was nice to have a mini in the mirror and I saw you drove back too? Was your son having a lazy day? haha

Hi Alex no am sorry I don,t remember seeing your car although the car is my sons pride and joy I am the one that tries my best to keep it looking the way it does.He just knows what I am like and I enjoy doing it for him,he does help out with the car at the shows and at home but he also understands that at times I just seem to take over and he can look a bit of a spare part.It was very nice talking with you on sunday,John

Hi Hrimfaxi I did post a picture up last year for the calendar that another of the members used to produce cannot remember what month but it did not get enough votes for it to win for the month I entered it for,maybe not the sort of picture people wanted to see in a mini themed calendar,but myself and my son were very proud to even be given permission to have the pictures taken with the Lancaster at the museum by the owner,two great British icons together.He it is again for you to view plus a couple more  that we took that day.

Sorry Steely - I'm afraid my camera batteries were on the verge of dying so I concentrated mainly on Mk1s, 2s and the three Mk3 S's, plus one or two choice examples out in the main car park! I still missed a few earlier cars as well

Ohh ok, I just hope now then that Mini Magazine or whatever has a pic of mine in there. I was there from 07:45 to about 14:00. Plenty of time for pics of mine to be taken lol.
