    Question 'banjo-style' Steering Wheel

     



    Did the banjo 'style' steering wheel "originally " come from a 1936 Ford Cabriolet ?
    If not what did it come from ?

    Is there a story behind why people want to use them or why they're so popular ?
    I come across one while out looking around and was wondering if I should use it or even go after it . ? looks cool , but , thought maybe you guys had some thoughts on it . "I'll prob, go get it for use later or the barn wall, "

    I'll need to fix cracks in the ring , but the stainless steel spokes looks really!!!! good and it has a V8 horn button.
    I know they are remaking them now but, just thought I'd ask &
    see if anyone had comments or info, they'd like to share about the subject.

    > the pic, is of a aftermarket, but looks similar (5 bent rods with collectors and a horn button. "Which I would guess looks like a banjo w/strings to some ? ")
