Is this one of Allen's wheels?

Who is Allen?
I found Steering wheel in USA and Hockey Puck in Italy some years ago. I don't remember the US sellers . The Italian is a Momo's addicted collector.

What i know is that the steering wheel has a perfect stitching with a correct new leather. And the black paint is definitively not shining , it's like the NOS thick grip steering wheel i have (that now it's Very expensive)
The Puck give to all the package the correct vintage look (i hate the "it seems a reproduction stuff" situation!!)

I was referring to the Registry Member 'DR 911E' - Allen has sold several wheel here like this one: http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...Steering-Wheel

Christian,
I absolutely don't remember, too many years and too many items bought!
What i can only say is that i found a little difference in the bottom area, where there is the vertical stitching. In the steering wheel i offer it's perfect, with a correct double thickess. In the photos you posted it seems not the same.
But they are all photos, i can be wrong.

Andrea I can't tell well from the pictures but in what condition is the center of the horn button underneath the leather? Has the foam has deteriorated or is it the light that makes it hard to tell?

Richard, I think the foam is not in perfect condition so the leather is not well stretched, as i said in my description.
It easy to change the foam base, as everybody knows. But i prefer to leave as i found it, so beautifully unmolested and with great patina.
This is my second in line best VDO steering wheel i have, the first is the NOS one.
