Re: For the love of Steering Wheels.....

Looking at the picture of your wheel again, I noticed that the fasteners attaching it to the hub appear to be hex-headed bolts which is almost an exclusive feature of Personal/Nardi wheels.
The horn button also looks like an early Porsche-crested Nardi/Personal button (any markings on its rear ?)
In addition, the pattern of the mounting holes (with the 2 top holes at 11 & 1 o'clock) is that used by Personal/Nardi as opposed to that used by Momo, etc which has the top hole at 12 o'clock.
So, my guess would be that it's a 'Personal' wheel - by that stage I think they used a painted or 'transfer' logo on the bottom front of the lower spoke rather than the earlier engraved logo so you might still be able to see the outline/shadow in certain lights if you look closely.
Also if you remove it from the hub you should find some part numbers ...

Here's a similar-looking Personal wheel:

Re: For the love of Steering Wheels.....
Thanks Andy.
I had the horn push out and it appears to thave NH which I believe is the Nardi insignia.
the Porsche badge in the middle is actually a little stick on one.
So there we go, problem solved.
thanks.

Re: For the love of Steering Wheels.....
I've got myself a 400mm Raid wheel to try - not sure if it's going to be a bit too big?

Re: For the love of Steering Wheels.....
These are my current two:
370mm Momo G.T.

350mm Momo Monza

I prefer the 370mm, the 350mm is a little too small in my opinion.

Not in any way original, but still a lovely thing to twirl...
