if my memory serves me right he had 1.5 or 2 sets,
but honestly who got his very first set, that I don't know
BUT I'll ask him for sure
it's great to update those stories and that wheels get kept and not get lost

Speedwell and Empicollector
the 92 for instance was done by the manufacturor of the Flat4 wheels
and gives the year of production most likely
92 says Nao is one of the early production
so keep them I would say
see you guys
