    Here is my most rare and odd steering wheel. I don't know what it is from originally,but it's aluminum and mahogany and 18" diameter. I even started a thread on here trying to identify it, with no results. It is very old,has an early twenties look and quality to it. Using it on my '29 tub.

    Picked this one up this weekend, anyone recognize it? I think it's factory from something. The outer grip is hard plastic, looks like it was supposed to be woodgrain.

    And here's my '60 Dodge Dart Pioneer wheel which I'm going to run in my '62 Chrysler Newport. I redid the clear plastic parts with vinyl tubing and glitter, did a tech on it.

    Thanks. Here's the tech I did about restoring it if you're interested.

    They can be recast, but it costs about $1300 and I just don't have that to spend. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.

    99% sure your woodgrain wheel is AMC, circa 69-72

    The guy I bought it from said the same thing, but I've been searching through tons of images online and I can't find a pic of it anywhere, some real similar ones but none the same.
