schwarz Tri spoke standard steering wheel to fit 1958 spline.
Thought I'd try locally before buying off the samba

Same as CB. CB should have the indicator cancel ring though (they unscrew)

Ha ha that same thought crossed my mind too. Had one in work the other day thought how cool... complete with spinner knob

other cool wheels to pinch: early land rover sterring wheel, early toyota land cruiser like 45 series, morris minor (i am putting one on mine )

Sorry

Here's some info explaining the differences in rim. There is a better thread on there somewhere but I can't find it. CB wheels aren't 'dished' like the one in the thread is my recollection. Mine is more rounded.
