Help ID steering wheel..VW? Boat?

I need help Iding this steering wheel. I may use it on my 34. Mounting it will be the trick.

On the back there is a date of 1957 cast into it.

Thank Clark

 

that reminds me of the stock wheel in a Henry J. you sure that's a date?

that's just what popped into my head. sometimes I'm even right.

 

It's not VW. I'd say boat. I don't see anywhere for a horn contact. I know the hub is missing, maybe the horn contact was in the hub. It doesn't look like it would be to hard to adapt to a Grant adapter.

 

Not sure if it's a date just assumed it was. The 1957 is in the circle to the right.

The lack of horn made me think boat also. The guy I bough it from thought VW. A grant adapter may be a little small....an adapter for the adapter ?

NICE! i like it alot.

 

Not Henry J either. I Googled Henry J steering wheel, and it's close, but not the same. Without knowing the size of the hole for the hub, it's hard to tell what it would take to put a Grant adapter into it, but I think a flat steel ring adapted to the wheel and the Grant adapter would be pretty easy to do.

 

Looks like 1957 Panhard Dyna Z.

damn, you're good...

 

Having the year helped immensely.

 

that would have been my second guess.

 

Wow!!! Never wuld have found that. Thanks!!

It would be fun to see if anybody could figure out what it is in the car.

It also has the same lines as the 1941 Lincoln Zephyr
