LL steering wheel

My 60 Roadster as an LL steering wheel.
I have been told that there are originals and later models of the wheel.
Any idea of what mine is?

OK, I was told by a member who knows these things, that if the hub is riveted on the back,
its original, fastened with screws its later.
This one is riveted. Just for info.

The later aftermarket universal Les Leston wheels that I have seen have a smaller area where the hub attaches, round holes, and spokes at a different angle. Then various hubs were screwed/bolted to the wheel. I bought 2 NOS LL wheels a few years back and used one on my Elva. Yours looks like it was specially made for the Porsche horn button, most likely for the Porsche factory. That's my guess.
