Thanks Tony. Yes, that's a perfect picture of the illusive cross hatch trim ring. Do you have a set you want to sell?

Hi Rick, that is Jim Lindler's Tiger. He's got it at The Greenbriar this weekend for a Concours show.

Hi Rick
Sorry I do not have any spare trim rings to sell I think they were used only for a short time and later they changed the style to a slotted design.

This car has the other style of trim ring. They've been reproduced.

Interesting thing about the red Jim Lindler Tiger is it has 51 ‘diamonds’ on the trim ring whereas mine has 53 , I know mine are originals. Were there 2 different stampings when they were first manufactured or are the 51 ‘diamond’ wheel trims aftermarket ?

There are several aftermarket cross hatch trim rings form the period. They have difference around the valves stem, the dish and slot holes to moumt them to a rootes wheel and the number of hatches.

"Styla" made some in period and some triumphs also used them...similar but different
