The picture does appear to be a VW unit- sixties vintage and would be "correct" to original.

There are one or more set screws to hold the unit to the column if I remember right. It's been 10 years since I put mine in.

Think bare column with shaft protruding. The assembly goes on at that point. To be vintage correct, the lever goes on the right hand side of the column. Remember the cars were "converted from right hand drive. The turn signal lever did not get switched to the American position.

I would only be guessing to say it would fit your column. It was installed under a MotoLita hub and steering wheel. I believe these can be had from Finishline. If you wish to use the "gennie" stuff, it is probable that the steering shaft you have will not have the correct spline for the MotoLita hub and may need to be re-splined or replaced. There are no adapters for this that I know of.

The wheel you describe is definitely not as original, which is 16", wood rimmed and of the "split ring" design. Shelby had them done with nine rivets holding the wood in place. AC installed them at the factory. I guess he wanted to be distinctive for some reason. Again, I'm sure the wheel and hub are available from Finishline.

Check my gallery. I think you might just barely make out the turn signal lever. The wheel you see is the correct Motolita piece and the silver Cobra center is also correct for an S/C.

If you do go with the "gennie" set up, you will find that the center cap may seem a little loose. All they have to hold them in place is a rubber o-ring. I had no problems with mine.

Hope some of this helps.
