Hi All. I've done some searching and read through the applicable posts on the forums but most of them refer to the 3 hole steering wheels.
I'm trying to ID this wheel. I've attached a picture. It's currently in my 66 C-Code fastback that my father and I had wrenched on when I was kid. Thanks to some uncanny coincidences I got the chance to buy it back. All the members of his old car club as well as a couple family members have said that they remember something about the steering wheel being special.
From what I can surmise, it's either an AC Cobra wheel, maybe one that went on one of the early Shelbys or a replica.
It does not appear to be laminated wood. There are no stampings anywhere on the wheel. The spokes bend at the end before the wheel. And unlike all the replicas I've seen the bend starts near the end of the spoke hole, not after the spoke hole. The metal is visible on the outside of the wheel.
I've attached a picture. The wheel isn't as orangy as the picture makes it look. Any help is appreciated. If you need more pics let me know.
Thanks!
