PS: Kuno and Rob, read the book and love it!
Thanks for the comment about the book

Those rims in your pic look like the (older?) type used by the LRDG Chevrolet WAs, which hadn't a "flat" disc like the one I posted and possibly had a different stud spacing, while still being 10-stud 16" rims.

It does appear to have been imported at some stage ..possibly by the AIF Could have been assembled in Bombay or Cairo . The owners would know more . It's a odd ball for sure.
These look like they're the same rims... those Chevrolets were used by who in North Africa? not the LRDG, I seem to remember...
