[Roadsters] Steering Wheel

[Roy Haslett]

I have had a Momo Prototipo wheel on my 67 1600 since the 80's.  It is a great
wheel and has the 3 spoke design with very similar drilled pattern as on
original Datsun.  It installed with an adaptor kit from momo and I have a
Datsun horn button that momo offered back then.  Don't know if they still do. 
It cost $135 in 85 and I think they are stiil about that price today.  Good
Luck
