Steering Wheel Source

I have been in this shop.  High quality and ability to make what you want.  To the best of my recollection, he makes or has made some parts for IM

Thanks, but I don't see it on the Classico website.  Some similar, but not the same.

No personal experience, but this looks like that type of wheel and bolt pattern.

Maybe they could tell you what type of hub or adapter you'd need to get from the Nardi pattern to this.

Also, @Lfepardo would probably know.

Troy, Like Mitch said thats a british style wheel.   You will need a new hub or an adapter.  Better off with a new Moto-lita style hub if you plan to use the 82mm Porsche Crest.  The Metal pattern in your steering wheel pic is called a large tear drop.  Jeffery from Classico Wheel can male you the ring.  He made mine, I'll look for the Picture. 

Here is the  Picture.  If I only had my VDM Steering wheel from Mr. Lempert, I'd be rockin'

Looks like it, but it isn't it.  This one has far more rivets. 

i ordered a MotoLita from England, custom made, my choice of wood, wheel pattern, # holes, type of finish, etc..took 3 weeks to get, excellent wheel..

@Troy Sloan

I just did this wheel on a Spyder we delivered last month, I made the adapter for the wheel as well. I have a wheel very similar to the picture you posted.

I posted for some help, because I've been frustrated in my attempts to identify the source.  I was hoping someone would make it simple and could give me part numbers and websites like they could do if I asked where I could get a banjo wheel and a Porsche horn button and hub.  Seems like this one could be just as simple. 

Saw your post after I posted my last message Greg.  Thank you. 

That is a NICE wheel Greg, but it's not the one I'm looking for.

I have these in stock

here is the hub we make

@Troy Sloan

here you go... the hub, wheel, horn ring pictured is an ISP West kit.  they have gone up in price $100 in last 3 years.... inflation i guess!

just choose your hub spline patterb- my VS came with a 1960-1974 spline streering rod/spline count.  easy plug and play.

wheel is not flat, it has a 1" dish, in my car VS this maintained  the 3" spacing between the steering wheel and blinker arm.   when i swaped it out for a flat wheel ( when i was experimenting whith wheels) i only had 2" between wheel/blinker harm .. a little  to tight for my hands.  i whent back to the dished wheel.

hope this helps....

cheers,

luis

I don't think it will be that simple Troy.  Here is the wheel.  I don't think that the trim ring is off the shelve.

@Troy Sloan

opss... i sent you the wrong link.  here is the right oone for beetle ( in liei of bus) adatptor.  sorry..  same price.  i jusy check my old invoice... for my VS i ordered the 1960-1974 1/2 hub adaptor.

let me know if you need a quick quide to identifying which one you need... i should have a picture somewhere comparing the three styles used by beetles...  pre '60 to post "74 1/2

these are off the shelve... hub, horn ring and wheel.

 @Troy Sloan Certainly looks like a Motolita:

Here is the adapter, comes in black too.

Pardo nailed it at a source in California.  That's a great deal if it comes with that trim ring too. 

here is a pic of this set up, on my car.   i painted the back of the hub to match my columb/blinker arm.

and sorry for the typos.... i m not a fan of the samsung 8 key board ;-)

Actually, it was very simple to find the wheel. Google can always answer the question. 5 minutes of research. Then it gets down to how bad do you want it $$$.

Looking through my server picture files... here is what the hub looks like uninstalled.  It can accommodate any 9 bolt wheel.  Also, I noted in my receipt that they sold me the kit- wheel, hub, and horn ring— without the horn button to save $$, since I already had a couple banjo wheel  and Porsche horn buttons.   The ISP guys are friendly, know our cars and builders, and have always been easy to work with.  

And a spline quick reference w/ picture,

Sorry I can’t share more pics.   I’m traveling in Europe, just accessing my files/home server,  through my Samsung phone,

Cheers,

Luis

@Lfepardo Exactly what I was looking for.  Thank you!

Marty your car is in another world hence the custom made hub   I think it will look like this ..  

Thanks @IaM-Ray, that gives me a good visual.  I finally talk to Mike and he said he has the metal and wood for my wheel.  I'm doing a Bolivian Rosewood.  Similar to this but in a VDM style.  Marty G-trying to be patient

That wheel is the only thing I am temped to add on my car .....NOT   

Another 40 hp, would be nice too how is that turbo working Marty?

This is what is your looking for...
