I do not mean to hijack Peter's listing, but I am slso interested in
upgrading my steering wheel from the black plastic wheel currently in my
Mk1. Ideally, I am interested in an original steering wheel, but a period
correct aftermarket one might also fit the bill. I saw Rande's
recommendation about the Nardi wheels.
Does anybody have an original Mk1 steering wheel for sale or know where to
get one.
I have of course looked at ebay and will continue to do so.
Thx,
Jim Lindner
