- I note that the car in the Barrett Jackson Auction has the steering wheel centered with the third spoke at 12:00. On other cars, I see it at 6:00. I have seen many examples of both over the years. Wh

- I have mine with the 3rd spoke at 12:00. That way the spoke doesn't interfere with the line of sight of the gauges. I was told this was original, but I like it either way. Patton -- Patton Dickson -

- I found that on the BJ8s , using the Moto-Lita type spacing , the instruments are actually more visible with the " middle spoke" down. The wide gap between the spokes gives a good view of both the ta
