Very rare black Abarth steering wheel (red logo)

[Robi]

Hi guys,

i'm offering for sale a rare Abarth steering wheel today in NOS condition. I didn't want to mention 'NOS' in the title because the steering wheel seems to have some sort of shade on the spokes as you can see in the pictures. I took them some time ago and i don't remember seeing that 'shade' but it's probably there. Maybe this is a correct definition of what is often referred to as patina. My guess is that it can be cleaned easily since it can't be something harsh. Just have a look at the rest of the steering wheel, it looks brand new: leather, thumb pads, stitching... Worth mentioning is that it is a 35cm version, and the spokes are black as you can see. Oh, and it comes with the period correct horn button as well. I've only seen one other for sale before and that was on the forum here. As a collector i see lots of steering wheels and this one i definitely more rare than let's say a jacky stewart, jacky ickx and even the earlier prototipos.

Price: 500$ for the wheel + horn button, excluding shipping and paypal.

I'm sorry guys, the wheel sold overnight to the first guy who responded by pm immediately after lowering the price.

Hi guys,

since i received some additional requests after the previous one had sold, i'm here to let you know that i have another one of these cool Abarths for sale. It's not perfect but it shows pretty good. The spokes have no special signs worth mentioning, unlike the leather. I always try to point out every 'negative' detail when selling a wheel and with this one there are a some signs of usage to be seen at 9 o'clock (very light scratch at the height of the left spoke), 5 o'clock (2 scratches of which one very light) and at 12 o'clock (two very small indents). As always, i've added specific pictures of these spots. While driving the only one you might see is the 9 o'clock scratch but i believe that with a little black dye only, it may be gone. I can give it a go if you'd like but i have a habit of not trying to restore/cover up anything when selling a wheel. The positive feedback i get each time when selling a wheel is much more important to me.

Price for this Abarth is at 300€, shipping included! Possible paypal cost is for the buyer.
