 |
|
Hi, I recently bought this wheel and I don't know its origin. It is dated on november 1941, 3.50Dx16, made by Hering, and has hubcap clips.
Hope you can help me, thanks
Alberto

looks like type82e / kubelwagen ? not normal split window. they where 3.00x16
that brand was used only in the early 40's as far as I know.

VW82 Kübelwagens used 3.00x16 rims. And no hubcaps either.
Maybe a few had hubcaps at the very beginning but later during the war hubcaps were not necessary or needed. |
