hi guys ,i need a steering wheel for my 62 baja ,would prefer sports but will take standard ,have bought a shite load off ebay but none fit ,,,,thanx

I have a few steering wheels at home one off a 67 solid steering column beetle; one of a 72 colapisable steering column; a sparco sports wheel and hub off a solid steering column; a saas wheel and hub off a 68 colapisable steering column beetle (the saas wheel would need fixing or replacing but hub is functional). Left me know how many splines on the column of yours and I'll see what I have got that should fit. Also what ones have you tried?

I've got a formuling sports wheels with a boss from my old 62 beetle, $50. U2U if you want more, or a pic. I'll have to find it in the garage...

Hi,
I'd look at changing the steering column to a 1968>
collapsable column and 1972>collapsable steering wheel..

or at least change over to the collapsable steering column
so if You hit something the column concertinas...

the 1972> flat plastic collapsable steering wheel..
also used in type 3s..
