Hi
Can anyone identify this steering wheel? When I purchased my Healey it came in a box full of bits and pieces. It needs to be restored but recently I have discovered that it has the wrong hub/boss to fit a BN1. The spline diameter is slightly smaller. It has no visible maker imprint. The timber is laminated and has no rivets.

Thanks Graham

Graham -

That is an aftermarket steering wheel of some sort, very similar in construction to the Les Leston:

I can't really advise you on what it goes on - these would have been put on Fiats, Alfas, British... who knows.

For your healey I would purchase a new reprodction -they are very good these days.

From the design can be one Nardi - but normally this is signed NARDI on one of the brackets -probably are one copy -I have one NARDI very similar that need proper boss for fit on AH
 
Graham,
The spokes on the wheel look to be dished. If you use this wheel on your 100 you will find it uncomfortable. On a 100 the wheel is already close to your chest.
