It needed a steering wheel when I brought it back to life several years ago after it sat in the previous owner’s garage for about 30 years. So I purchased the original style (banjo) steering wheel since I have never had one in my many years of MG ownership plus I try to keep the cars fairly original. What I did not realize is how big they are in diameter plus I liked the feel of the smaller loaner steering wheel I had been using that belonged to my son. Having several MGBs, I determined my preferred steering wheel diameter to be 14”-15”, leaning more to 14” (13” being too small).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So now I have been watching for steering wheels, preferably wood. Although I have looked at the modern Moto-Lita and other variants, I found a used steering wheel on Ebay, Styla brand, but it has a few defects, comes with the entire column, and would cost about the same as a new Moto-Lita for the whole thing. So now I have been focusing on a period correct after-market wood steering wheel (14-15”) as the preferred option. But I can’t seem to find much information on vintage steering wheels. There is the Les Leston brand but I haven’t seen any for sale the past few months. The Styla brand looks good if I can find one at a decent price. I have now located a “Superior Performance” steering wheel that has promise but the boss is plain (no logo) and the seller is not sure it has the correct boss – and that could be a problem since I cannot tell what kind of boss might work if I had to replace it.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>So I’ll ask the list what any of you might now of 1960s wood steering wheels used on the MGB and any sources of such to help in my search.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>David Councill<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>64 MGB<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>67 MGBGT<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>72 MGB<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
