Name that wheel

My steering wheel hub fits so loosely that you can actually grab the wheel and jiggle it around. I removed the steering wheel and hub nut, and the hub pulls right out and doesn't fit tight. It most certaintly does not fit snuggly on the spline.
Does anyone recognize this steering wheel? I want to order a new hub. Is there any other mounting patterns for the wheels other than the Grant style or Momo style?
The little research I have done indicates this is the Momo style as the Grants have 5 screws and the Momo has 6.
 
I think it was originally in that Wooden car that 'Wooden Run'.

Seriously, are you sure it's the hub that's loose? There are several components that if maladjusted or broken can cause a loose feel in the wheel.
 
Yes I am sure it is the hub. It is made out of some alloy that looks like aluminum, and the main steering shaft out of steel that looks perfect. When I pulled the hub off there was silver dust that came out from the worn hub.
