I do wonder if it's now been 'dressed up' judging by the Ebay photos?

I've never paid anywhere near that much for a steering wheel Darren ...

They are still out there. I bought this one at a small british car autojumble for € 35,-

....320mm?

Yes it's 320mm but the vendor had no idea what he was selling. If it had been a 350 or a 360 he would most likely have asked the same price.

....now that would have a been a bargain!

Great find

So my GERSTEEN 350mm steering wheel arrives today complete with SWB adapter - very pleased......

I found this lovely old MOMO Monza a while back. 370mm... pretty rare size.

Let me tell you a little about Andy B. (Lightweight_911). You probably already know this but he's such a humble guy. Always willing to offer a helping hand—he has encyclopedic knowledge of many subjects and is largely responsible for my interest in MOMO steering wheels. Though we've never met in person... he's a great guy. Thanks Andy!! I hope I get to shake your hand one day.

Thanks for those kind words Mark...

It's a shame we didn't get to meet up at Rennsport Reunion when I was over a few years ago.

I recently came across this wheel after it was highlighted by a fellow DDK'er.....

.....period solid Personal steering wheel measuring at 365mm, I didn't realise it was a solid type until it arrived but a great looking wheel in the perfect size all the same. No date stamp so suspect it's ealier than my similar looking 1970 Personal wheel....







....anyone seen a hub like this before?.......it has a screw on collar and fits the spline of a 911....going by the horn push that came with it I suspect it might have once been fitted to a 356?...





....the horn push is a really nice funky period item and was part of the attraction.....never seen one of these before, again any information would be appreciated?...





Cheers,

It's under the tree...haven't seen it yet....can't wait!

Here's the new wheel, it's taken a while but worth it in the end! I'll update my 993 thread with how it was done.

Let us see the whole wheel then Mike - not just the badge !
