1940 Ford 'banjo' steering wheel mounted!

I bought this ratty steering wheel from eBay US, since the Minor Morris one was not so easy to mount on the Split. This is a 1940 Ford 'banjo' steering wheel, and... it went directly on my doka steering column! You need only to file a little the opening where the key goes in! The size is very similar to the one of a Split (17"), so it's not like the 14" Flat4 banjo!!! With this you can still drive! And it seems nice to me. I may also restore it when I need. Now I have to fit a horn button.

Steering wheel...

3000 visits! Here's your present...
Yestarday I received this 'low budget' steering wheel from the UK.
It comes from a Morris Minor MK1 and I found it on eBay.
It has a nice 'banjo' look, but at less than 1/10 of the cost of a Flat4!
I hope to be able to fit this...
