[Mat Big Hat]

Can somebody please post or pm me a pic of the back side (facing the steering column) of a 240Z Grant steering wheel adapter? TIA

I have a Grant wheel, I will try to get a pic tomorrow if I have time.

[Mat Big Hat]

did you get a pic yet?

Sorry It took so long but I did take some pictures. They are in my Gallery and I am just awaiting aproval. The adapter looks purple but it is black. I took the pictures in the dark, I think thats why it came out like it did.

No way to answer that without some pics. Do the spokes have holes in them just depressions? BTW, all 240Zs came with walnut steering wheels stock, perhaps even the 260-280Zs. Dunno the latter.

You need to spend more time in the threads before The Rust seeks vengeance for your blasphomyROFL ! While the 240Z Steering wheels are a combination of resin and wood, they are NOT Walnut! Walnut is not an easily maleable wood even when saturated with resin-or anything else! The OEM shifter know could be Walnut(I have never really checked to see), but not the steering wheel,. The later S30s came with a black closed cell rubber rim made to look like it was covered with a stitched leather cover.

The spokes do have holes in them and yes it is hard to turn. This was my first Z, so I dont know how it would be to turn with the original wheel.

BTW the Outside Diameter it 13.5 in.

How does this compare to the original wheel?

Here are the oem wheels that would have come on a 240Z, the one without the cutouts is a restored series one steering wheel, the one with the cutouts is a later unrestored wheel. Sorry for the poor pic, there was enough llight to fool the auto flash, but not the camera-had to brighten it with software
