Greetings all..

As some of you may have read, I'm soon to purchase a lovely '73 1.7 litre in pretty spiffy condition. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

Having driven the cars before I know the only thing that would bother me long term is the steering wheel. I'm used to driving small sports cars with smaller racing wheels, and the larger wheel in the 914 just feels a little clunky to me (although Im sure id get used to it)

I was wondering what all of you guys have done in terms of steering wheels, and how easy it is to get a replacement. Do MOMO kits work well? Are there Porshe Badged replacements that work?

Thanks in advance and I look forward to seeing what y'all have done!

I have a Personal "Fittipaldi" wheel, which was previously in my 911 (sold). It's a 350mm wheel IIRC, and I like it a lot, better than the Momo Monte Carlo's I've also had. The quality is superior IMHO, although the Nardi/Personal hub adapters are quite a bit harder to find these days than the common Momo/Sparco types.

So is mine a Fittipaldi as well? "Personal" is stamped on the front. Also has a crown over the "S & O". Came w/ the hub. Traded for 2 sets of rod bearings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

Nice pedals btw... The accl. looks like a Spitfire "#1" logo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif)
