TR2/3/3A Anyone have any photos of TR3's sporting rear finned aluminum brake drums?

I can get a picture of the Datsun drums behind 60 spoke chrome wires, on my TR4A, if that would help.

Nice! Looking to get a couple aluminum drums for my 3B along with the chrome 60 spoke wires. Good photo of the look I am going for. Your luck to have those drums!

Here are Alfins on my TR-2. I love em. The circumferential fins are an alternative to the radial fins above.

Our TRs have brakes? I thought we scrubbed off speed with initial understeer then throttle induced wild oversteer?

I have been searching for photos of TR 3's with Alfin style finned aluminum brake drums and can't find any examples. Anyone have some photos? Want to see how they look with 48 and/or 60 spoke wire wheels.

I have only found this one: www.google.com/search?q=alfins+with+wire+wheels&safe=off&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=EV8FUra_HY3QqAHzx4HABQ&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1222&bih=871#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=LT-Htqe9O8Q38M:;Sk8v6sPZFU6yMM;http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trtriumph.com%2Fimages%2F31-Wires%2520finned%2520with%2520Alfin.JPG;http%3A%2F%2Fwww.trtriumph.com%2Fr__donk.htm;640;480

Thanks!
Here's a couple from my 1960 BT7.
They look better with the wheels off.
I had the rims polished but because they are a harder type of aluminum they don't shine up as nice.
