This original Mercedes steering wheel is available for purchase
Fits most Mercedes between 1964 and 1966.
- Steering wheel: Very old original part, the old plastic has been completely removed (see last picture) and new plastic has been cast around the old original metal core. Due to a few missing parts, it was finally painted in an ivory tone.
- The cushion cap (often called impact pot) is an old original, the plastic is in excellent condition, a slight pressure point, chrome on the star feed ring and outer ring in very good used condition.
- The horn ring has received Grade 1 new chrome. The cap nuts are used.
Thanks to the new plastic, a steering wheel that will be enjoyed for decades. Take a look at my shop, I have different quality levels of this model, also NOS in stock.
