Re: Wooden Steering wheels
I haven’t seen that before. So different than the other flat nardi’s - looks more similar to a flat vdmJoris Koning wrote: ↑Wed Sep 02, 2020 1:40 pm Don,
That's the early flat Nardi I have also seen on some other early cars. It has a distinct thin hub of which the beauty ring is actually steel and chromed. Thanks for sharing.

Bill
There is a faint MADE ITALY in the usual rectangular outline on the back of the lower spoke, but no year stamp.
The diameter of the wheel is 16 inches.
It came with a St Christopher horn button that is around somewhere.
Any ideas?

Re: Wooden Steering wheels
Tom......to my knowledge, dished wheels were not used in the 356/356A timeframe........and.....I`ve never seen exposed rivets on the face of an old Nardi.
