Can anyone ID this steering wheel for me?
14 inch OD, boss is 9 hole, 98mm PCD
The inside centre of the boss has C109 stamped into it.
On the back of the boss where it bolts to the wheel I can make out Made In France, although France is hard to read.

Re: Steering Wheel ID
It could be an very early Lecarra if the bolt holes are on the same place as Moto Lita.Kees.

Re: Steering Wheel ID
Yes I agree, it looks like a Formuling.
Unusual PCD at 98mm or maybe 3 7/8 inch.
Need to find a better centre if I am going to use it on the Mk1.
Were the French metric or imperial back in the day?
Other than steering wheels, there is not much info on Formuling as a company.

Re: Steering Wheel ID
Maybe the tulp boss from Moto Lita will fit (diameter 89mm and the same hols)) or the tulp boss from Astrali and Mountney if you want to fit an bakalite Mk1 horn push.
