MOTO-LITA TISS NICE INITT?HAD IT ON MI 1300E BUT MY FINGERS USED TO HIT DASH THATS WHY I TOOK IT OFF PLUS SOLD CAR

[lotusless]

moto lita was just an aftermarket wheel for all types

of cars, just the boss was changed over like a mountney

wheel was. mk1 lotus cortinas did not have these fitted

to them they had thin spoked (with slots not holes) alloy

centers. the mk2 lotus had the same wheel as the 16e had

but not wood rimmed + with 3 holes in them.

your one looks nice but in the last pic is that a crack on the

alloy spoke on the right?? if its not then stick it on gaybay

+ you will find out what its worth i would say about £30 but

you might get a lot more on there.

yeah its an aftermarket universal wheel..

 

copied from this thats on my capper, mines a 1969 genuine jobbie.

Motolita still make the wheel, it aint cheap,

personally I think they are dangerous, as they splinter in an accident, But on the other side I use a 14" leather MotoLita wheel on my Cortina, and I think I have another 6 or 7 hanging up on my wall, I buy them if I see them cheap at bootfairs or autojumbles
