Another point- question? maybe?
Didn't most 1950-60's cars (not US) not have power steering?
I'm thinking VW(obviously)- british, volvo's etc?
My dad has an extree 1965-66'sh wooden steering wheel. It is ridiculously goofy looking sizewise- yet secretly, I long to get it from him to mount in my 78 sc.- Yes it will look stupid- but maybe- just maybe it would give me a little more leverage over that front end. (EDIT- it would be nostalgic for me nonetheless- my 1st car was a 66 912- and it was a wooden one, not the plastic). Knowing nothing different, I remember growing up and thinking how stupid it looked when all the p-car owners had longhoods with small aftermarket steering wheels about the size of a steering wheel off of a "pole- position" video arcade game. I think a good compromise maybe is the 69' diameter steering wheel- which (I think- could be wrong) was a little smaller than the boatwheels, but bigger than the 1980's type wheels.
I dunno.....just a whim- don't tell anyone.
