Side view of the hub with locking key removed.
It added about 1 1/4" to the steering column length. Position is very ergonomic and leg space between seat & wheel is increased a little.

Adaptor hub for Nardi-Grant combination
Having a lathe makes life a whole lot easier when you do stuff like this. And it's fun creating shiny round things.

Hub viewed from the other side.
What the front side of the hub looks like. This is the side that faces the driver and accepts the wheel & horn button.

The custom machined hub.
The black part is by Grant. The polished aluminum piece is what I machined up to accept the horn button and Nardi wheel.

Quick release hub mounted to the column.
Very happy with the final result. Wheel is a breeze to remove and replace. Once wheel is removed, a locking cover dresses up this star hub. Horn works too.

Original Cobra From My Home Town
A Cobra comes home: Now worth $1 million, rare car returns to Lincoln.The last time this car was in Lincoln, its owner had just finished grad school and had no idea it could make him a millionaire.
Steve Woehrle paid $5,300 for the second-hand Shelby Cobra from an O Street corner car dealer in 1973, and now he was shifting it into drive and running north out of town, first to a teaching gig in South Dakota and then to a long-term tenure in Minnesota.
Woehrle and his Cobra are returning to Lincoln next weekend, but the retired professor won’t be behind the wheel. Instead, the car he bought 45 years ago will arrive by truck and trailer, with a security detail and an estimated value of more than $1 million.
College student bought this 1965 AC Shelby Cobra in Lincoln for $5,300 in 1975. Today, it has estimated value of more than $1 million. The car is on display at Okoboji Classic Cars but will return to Lincoln July 13-15 during the Mustang Club of America’s national show outside Pinnacle Bank Arena.
