thanks for your help, Zack

Zack. You can get that same wheel from Jeff at Perfect Motion in Sarasota, FL. He can set you up for your application. Look under Classico at the following site: http://www.classicowheels.com/

I may be wrong, but I believe the steering wheel you are looking at on E-bay is a Derrington or a Mota Lita (looks like a Derrington). Here's a resource for ID-ing wood 356 steering wheels: http://www.356registry.org/Tech/steering_wheels.html

Hope this helps.

Zack, It really depends on the number of splines you have on your steering shaft. I can't keep it straight but "early" cars have very fine (a large number of small splines) and "late" shafts have course splines (relitively courser and fewer spines)

My car has an original 356A shaft and an original 356A steering wheel. The typical steering wheel used on replicas will not fit.

Asking if something fits becomes a bit more difficult than just asking. You will need to offer up more specifics if you want accurate information on "will it fit"

I am actually pretty sure Jim Ward's beautiful steering wheel would not fit on my car, and we both have Intermeccanicas.

Zack, I went through hell and high water to get my wheels to fit. I have two, a banjo and a nardi (both replicas). Trying to figure which adapter will work if you don't know what you're looking for is almost a needle in a haystack. Use a marker to mark where you start and count the splines and then measure the diameter of the steering shaft so you know what you're after. Adapters are often specific to the wheel maker but not always. Mickey
