<p class="MsoNormal">I have been restoring a 1964 MGB (my
non-winter daily driver). It needed a steering wheel when I
brought it back to life several years ago after it sat in the
previous owner?s garage for about 30 years. So I purchased the
original style (banjo) steering wheel since I have never had
one in my many years of MG ownership plus I try to keep the
cars fairly original. What I did not realize is how big they
are in diameter plus I liked the feel of the smaller loaner
steering wheel I had been using that belonged to my son.
Having several MGBs, I determined my preferred steering wheel
diameter to be 14?-15?, leaning more to 14? (13? being too
small).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So now I have been watching for steering
wheels, preferably wood. Although I have looked at the modern
Moto-Lita and other variants, I found a used steering wheel on
Ebay, Styla brand, but it has a few defects, comes with the
entire column, and would cost about the same as a new
Moto-Lita for the whole thing. So now I have been focusing on
a period correct after-market wood steering wheel (14-15?) as
the preferred option. But I can?t seem to find much
information on vintage steering wheels. There is the Les
Leston brand but I haven?t seen any for sale the past few
months. The Styla brand looks good if I can find one at a
decent price. I have now located a ?Superior Performance?
steering wheel that has promise but the boss is plain (no
logo) and the seller is not sure it has the correct boss ? and
that could be a problem since I cannot tell what kind of boss
might work if I had to replace it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So I?ll ask the list what any of you might
now of 1960s wood steering wheels used on the MGB and any
sources of such to help in my search.<o:p></o:p></p>
