Steven,
That wheel looks the same as the one used on the M type but this one has the sprung steel exposed (rather than fully covered as on the M type) and has the slots machined in it. If I am right I may have an M type wheel that could be spare but it is in a poor state. This may not be a problem if you are going to have to refurbish and modify it. Is your boss tapered and keyed? Also what diameter is your wheel?
Keith

Tim and Keith,
Many thanks for your kind replies.
Tim - I will enquire with Paul.
Keith - I will check my car this week. It would be interesting to know more about the condition of your wheel please? I will PM you. |

I believe it was Willie McKenzie (http://austinrepro.com) who had these on eBay recently strangely described as "Vintage MG M-TYPE STEERING WHEEL". The customer could choose either for the same price.

When I refinished my M-type wheel, it had solid spokes, not the slots in the Campbell wheel.

This is the standard M-type steering wheel.
Campbell clearly opted for solid spokes but at 272 m.p.h. I suppose you would.
