  1. Bought this banjo steering wheel acouple years ago at a swap meet for 30 bucks. I recently fixed a few cracks and painted it. 17" diameter 5/8 " keyed shaft. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Rob

    And 38 also.

    There might be a technical difference between 38 and a 39 for a restorer in the spoke separators but I don't know if there is or not. I always just call mine a 39 but it could be a 38.
