I looked at a 1942 C yesterday and noticed the rear wheel centers were about 2 1/2 inches thick. I have a later model set and those are only about 1" thick. Does anyone know any detail on this? Thanks.

| Can't tell from your picture, but probably a steel wheel center. |

Thats the war time version, for steel wheels and heavier. ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |

Check out this link, this is Bills C on steel. Notice the rear wheels, and the 4 notches. Normal versions only had 2.
