As I understand it RRAs were available with FF hubs from new, at least from 1939.
This one was definitely rebuilt/repainted in the mid 50s, but I wonder if it was bought new with this configuration.
I bought it from the son of the original buyer and he can't remember such details of 50 years ago!
The current wheels (Dunlop Special Lightweight, chromed steel) are definitely post 1945.
It ain't goin' in no museum before I do.
