Stratos Original / Replica Steering Wheel

[ProtoTipo]

I'm sure you could spend less money recreating an exact replica(s) in new condition (as Gerry has done?) but for some that could never be original and therefore never as valuable.

Exactly.

No matter how exact a replica car or replica car part is, it will never be an original.
Original Stratos cars are now selling at auction for well over £200,000. Any issues of them being laid up for long periods or unsympathetic ownership are secondary to them being complete and the real thing.

Rare 'old' steering wheels for rare 'old' cars.
Having said that, I expected £1,000 to have been enough, but then in all this time, I've never seen an original Stradale horn push on ebay...

Compare this steering wheel with a genuine period Ferrero Munari signature item;
Note the stamped signature marking, rather than engraved. Also note the lack of countersunk holes, the thickness of the metal, and the new trimming.
