 Craig Little is a very active restorer and highly knowledgeable with twenties Citroëns. Still he will stumble over small and larger mysteries form time to time. Like this one: "I recently aquired these wheels and think they mey be worth of investigation. They come attached to a pair of B2 Citroen type front hubs which are fully equipped with the readily recognised Citroen aluminium wheel cap and Citroen wheel nuts. Both wheel hubs retain the remains of a substantial 40 mm diameter solid axle. And both of these axle stubs have been cut with an acetelene torch It appears the whole was once part of a trailer axle. The central drum part of the wheels makes them a reasonably heavy assembly. After trolling though countless photos of rear wheel drive Citroens on Google and in Citroen literature, the last photo supplied is the only one of a Citroen (5CV?) I can find equipped with identical wheels." text and photos Craig Little |
