HYi
I make that 3 studs plus a brake adjuster hole, I'd have thought the latter would be diagnostic.

I'll ask a local friend, he has a '47 Minx and last time I looked he had an odd wheel on his car (whether he has the correct one tucked away somewhere I'm not sure but will ask).

Spoke to the local Minx owner, said he'd find a corner for the wheel in his garage if you don't want it any more. Whereabouts roughly are you?
