Steering Wheel Orientation - 2009 Update
Found a vintage Derrington wheel for my 100M in the UK. I installed it with the spokes in an inverted "Y" orientation so that the spokes do not block the Tach and Speedo. However, when I was looking through different resources (Piggot, Clausager, Moment and Anderson). I found pictures of 100's (and 3000's) with wood and banjo wheels with the spokes oriented in both inverted and non-inverted Y orientation with wheels straight ahead. Search of the archives showed a similar question in 2009 that was not answered. Not blocking the gauges seems logical but was wondering if anyone knows how they came from the factory or if any other logic applies?
(You can tell that is winter in Pennsylvania USA and I'm doing anything to keep my mind occupied on AH stuff while the cars are hibernating!)
