Steering wheels for GTD

[ScottG]

I own a GTD that is fitted with a quick release Sparco steering wheel. I would like to fit an original equiptment wheel which I belive is a Mota Litta 14 inch. Can anyone confirm this and the best supplier of one and finally if it will fit the same quick release boss?
I would also love to know if anyone recognises the name of the colour from the picture I have uploaded?

Re: Steering wheels

Scott,
You need the Moto-Lita 14" GT40 wheel, available in black or dark blue. (01264 772811)
The price is £117.00+VAT and delivery is about 3 weeks, as the metal blanks have to be sent away for hard anodising before the leather can be sewn on.
The mounting pattern is 6-bolt, which will hopefully fit your Sparco adapter. A correct mounting boss is available from Frank Catt for £40.

Scott,

Have one too as Tony mentionned.
The orginal was 14' but I took a 13' as it a big one.
I also took the dark blue as said being the original color on P1075.
Recommend Moto Litta as great stuff but a bit expensive.

Success

Thanks to Tony and Fred, the stud pattern looks right so I will buy one and hope it fits the quick release steering boss i currently have.
As a point of interest I have unearthed a calendar I was given 20 years ago that was produced for Ford with images of cars across it's history with a particular leaning towards it's racing heritage. July's image is of a red GT40 and it is also the cover car. Other cars in the calendar include a Cobra, RS200 and a big arched rally escort. The copy I have was distributed by Hendy Lennox, the Ford main agent in Southampton. Sorry I can' post the photo I have just taken of it as my PC will not let me attach the image.

Did anyone have any ideas on what the particular name the colour of my car is?

It's sort of a pale transparent colour Scott..

Thanks for that Keith I am guessing you can't see the thumbnail image o my profile?

Scott,
All I can tell from the small thumbnail is that it looks a darkish blue. A bigger image may help...
