Has there been a discussion on the model numbers being cast on the wheels of early 75s and if so which models had it..I have a Jaguar D type thats just come in and having photographed it and looked closely there is a definate 41 on the tyre wall side..... :?

You might have noticed a post or two showing a non matching numbered metal wheel on an early Lesney, but there has never been too much discussion on these early numbered metal wheels. A bit Dim?
No......Just a Youngster Playing with his Superfasts........LOL :lol: Kwakers

Maybe this post could be renamed so its easier to understand and stands out as a wheel number ref guide..

I don't have an Australian version, but It's probably the same as this Birtish version...

What you mean this one...

Underneath the arches,
We dream our dreams away,
Underneath the arches,
On cobblestones we lay.
Back to back we're sleeping,
Tired out and Worn,
Happy when the daylight comes creeping,
Heralding the dawn.
