R11 Rubber Drive Pucks

[Barry Robin]

My rubber puck (no poetry intended) just bit the dust, locking up the rear wheel in the process. Mind you, this is the original piece-almost ninety years old, so it doesn't really suprise me.

I've noticed that the usual restoration-type guys carry a puck for the earlier series 1 (which is a R52/62 piece) and the late R12 stuff. Nothing that'll fit for the middle series.

What do other R11 Series III-IV restorers do?



Any idea where to buy one? Or perhaps someone who can fabricate one out of a block of rubber on commission?

Looks like Mark Huggett has those. Search part number F 66 F 55 a on his site.

I just ordered it! Thank you much, Mr...Tux?

And let me tell you-you do look killer in that evening wear.
