FS: FUSINA early 70's steering wheel

[ribachio]

Original FUSINA steering wheel, black aluminium spokes, diam 370mm leather crown
(30mm handl.); one of the early leather wheels made in Italy by Roberto Fusina, racer and craftsman, in the late 60's/early 70's, after the wood rim wheels period; "x" handmade stitching of the crown and the pads. Very rare, new in his original box. Perfect to fit early 911 as aftermarket good choice of that time

Really nice - but where do you get a hub??

[denson]

That's the question!

[hesaputz]

Didn't mean to be flip; I just remember having one of these once - luckiily with a hub. When I tried to put it on something else, I was stymied. It only appears to be a Momo pattern - it's actually about 5mm larger.

HELLO thanks for your kind contributions! i could purchase, if needed , a proper hub in Italy or to adapt another ...

Fits a Nardi (Raid, Racemark) hub. Easy to find and rather cheap.

Very nice wheel. I like it especially because it's not the ubiquitous Prototipo.

thx Jens for your technical note and appreciation! Yes not only the same prototipo for the early911, but Fusina (not to forget Roberto Fusina was supplier of the Porsche racing team in the 2nd half of the 60's fitting the works 906) and Racemark Raid , very cool

Agreed. Nice wheel.

I'm pretty sure I have very early solid 911 hubs for this wheel, both stock height and extended 100mm.
