Title: AC Steering Wheel Centre
Post by: twogreens on May 28, 2007, 15:32:46: Can any one suggest where I might be able to obtain an original pattern AC logo steering wheel centre or cap? I am after the plastic type that was fitted to the Mk II /III and AC 289. I bought one from Finish Line in the US but it is an aluminium billet with an AC sticker on it rather than the original moulded plastic item.

   Regards to all

   Hopefully the pictures are attached. It is a tough item to photograph properly! The item I received seems indistinguishable for the original part. The two small items in the plastic bag are the metal clips that retain the cap in the centre of the steering wheel.
