Wood Rim Steering Wheels
 
In an early sales brochure that I have, the wood rim wheel is clearly photographed with "thumb rests".

Two little humps at about 9 and 3 o'clock.

Does any one know if these made it into production please?

Not on the light oak wooden wheel on my Tourer, same circumference all way round the wheel.

Well, I know at least one did because I seem to recall (probably 6 or 7 years ago) a member on here had one for sale, or was restoring one or something (sorry, can't quite remember the details). I'm sure the thread had a pic or 2 as well..

So, if one was made, I'm sure that at least one batch was made.

However, to say that these are rare would be an understatement of monumental proportions.. :D


Cheers,
Karl.
