Default Re: Oh Lordy, I now own a Fordy (a Lincoln actually)..

Yup, That's the original rim blow steering wheel. And it still works.

Simon's great-grandson (my son) thinks the rim mounted horn element is the coolest thing. If you look closely, you can even see the two noticeable wear marks where my Grandfather would place his thumbs at the junction of the spokes at the 10:00 and 2:00 positions.

When we went back in the house, I showed my son one of Simon's sunglasses from the glove box that still had his great-grandfather's thumbprint on the lens. My son thought THAT was really cool. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
