RO>Greetings all and happy new year.
RO>For several months now I have been searching vainly for a classic 60s era
RO>wood rimmed chrome spoked steering wheel to replace the black plastic one in
RO>my Mk I Spit. The only one I have seen is in the VB catalog but it is
RO>mahogany rimmed, highly polished wood and looks to be too fat in the rim
RO>width and too small in the circumference. I am looking for that classic
RO>thin rim with finger grips, light walnut or oak colored wheel as a
RO>replacement (in fact our 356C has exactly what I am looking for but alas
RO>there is no adaptor for a Porsche to Spitfire conversion). I'll also need
RO>an appropriate adapter to go with it (I expect that will be like finding the
RO>needle in the haystack). So, any leads or thoughts as to where such a gem
RO>might be found (new or used)?????? Thanks all.
RO>Ross D. Vincenti
RO>64 Spitfire 4
RO>64 Porsche 356C Coupe (next project)
Ross,
Check with any larger parts store and look into the Grant line.
If yo cannot find any info, let me know. I think I have a catalogue
around here someplace.
Among other things, Grant makes an excellent Moto-lita look-a-like with
the chrome spokes, walnut outer ring and brass rivets.
They are not "cheap" but quality cannot be beat.
Regards,
TonyR
