    I believe this is the correct site.

    I bought mine from Socal Speed Shop in the city of Orange, CA. The manufacture is Forever sharp steering wheels and they are sooo cool. it mounted right up to the EMPI steering shaft I installed and looks Sweet! I had a welder cut the shaft to size and weld a spline end on it. he then welded a female adapter to the top of the “Crash Basket” and that allows me to easily remove the steering shaft when I need to. You can buy directly from Forever Sharp, I just went to SoCal to give Ash the business and I got to see it in person before I bought it.

    I don’t think the wheel on VintageCarParts UK web site is a Forever Sharp wheel.

    FS has banjos, but all the ones I’ve seen are three spoke. Pictures here:
    And they don’t sell them without the center hubs like the one below.

    That Flat 4 is about the closest thing to an original TD wheel you can get without modding an original TD wheel.

    For all you nubies in the group, the last few Banjo pictures are from the RICH members. They’re just sharing how the other half lives. I read their posts with Robin Leach’s voice in my head. Those wheels sure look Good!

    I really like that wheel, John.  I’m going to have to pick your brain about it because I would love to do something like that for my car.
