I've noticed that the earlier grey 22x30 tires (tyres) do not have Lesney England cast into them but the later black 22x24 tires are cast with Lesney England.
Do the black 22x30 include cast text?

Hello George
According to Nick's listing, the rear wheel diameter changes from 13.5 mm to 13 mm from variation 7 to variation 8, while the outside tire diameter stays the same. The profile of the tire tread also changes to a more angular, deeper groove on the later black plastic tires.
As one of the VDB members says in his postscript "there's nothing regular about wheels"!
white interior is one i painted...and the beater up front with the M on the hood/bonnet is a childhood survivor!
Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.
Wow Jason, I think I had to pick my eye balls up off the floor. Congrats on a real beauty and rare one!
There was one on Ebay last week, but price tag was WAY high................ Went unsold.
Thanks for sharing
