Can anyone tell me if this is a 914 4 or 914 6 steering wheel
It is a leather wrap, but the top is deteriorated because of sun
exposure. It has a foam rubber beneath the leather.

its a late wheel. The sunk in area where the steering nut is a quick way to tell. Early cars are flat. Plus the date code 5 /72 ( May72) and part number.

I do wonder what the ‘72-914-6 used since it had a vw column.

Makes sense. I didn't know if maybe there was a special number to designate a '72 six wheel.
