I dig how the holes were used as locations to peen the tubing making it look like the OG finger grip. Far out! Those little wart bumps on the Speedway wheel are strange for sure.

The steering wheels from the '60's - early '70s are oddly thin in your hand. Probably why those leather wheel wraps came out. It's always a bit strange to drive a larger car with such a thin tiller, not unlike a boat.

The OE wheels are definitely on the heavier side. Even though they were thin, the circumference, depth and rigidity must have required some dense material to only be supported at narrow joints.
