Need Help IDing These Wood Steering Wheels
I have these three wheels I'm looking for some help with. I'm not using them and am thinking of either selling them or adapting them for use like on my yard tractor, hose reel or whatever else can be thought of.
1 - Italvolani Formel all three horn buttons ate broken. Is there a source for the part? Wheel is in great shape otherwise with nice leather center cover, dated 4/2/87. 2 - Unknown is a three spoke with holes and 5 holes for mounting. Kind of like a Gant wheel. Dated 3/87 Made in Italy. 3 - Unknown older wheel with a splined center and integrated horn contact ring. Three spokes with horn buttons and a silk screened horn image on each, On the hub section is GY01. Underside of spokes have plastic covers. Wheel No.1 ![]() Wheel No.2 ![]() ![]() Wheel No.3 ![]() ![]() ![]() Thank in advance - Terry

The 1st & 2nd look like Jaguar to me. I once had a 91 XJS and it had a steering wheel like your second photo.

Hi Vern, the first one is an Italvolanti with a typical 6 point mounting, my wife originally bought this when she was driving the Porsche and she had a Momo adapter for it. It used to be a popular VW add on.
The second one with only five mounting points is odd. The only wheels I ever remember seeing like this were the Gant Wheels made in the USA? Both are made in Italy in this case. That third one is a manufacturer specific wheel of unknown origin. Terry
