Gordon; Thinking that with your creative abilities you could incorporate that little jewel with the banjo spokes on one of your trick steering wheels. Period correct and all - don't cha know. Dan

Very cool Gordon. There is one of these on ebay right now. Apparently they were quite popular in the past.
Unfortunatly, the seller wants a fortune for his.
Let us know if you install it and how it looks on one of your wheels.

Looked at the ebay listing and at the pics in this post - there's no way to tell how big it is, but it looks like it's a fairly good sized piece of work.

Anybody seen one first hand? It looks like it's about the diameter of an old style pocket watch and a good 1 1/2" to 1 3/4" deep. Might look alright on an old American 50's sedan steering wheel but perhaps a bit much on a TD's.
