OK, so here's your chance to own a piece of GRM history. I have the Momo wheel from the project CRX up on ebay: Linky Linky
It's in great shape, but I replaced it with another Momo that was 100% less multi-colored.

Always liked those for their sheer funkiness. Alas I have no Idea where I'd use it and its a bit out of my garage art budget.
Perfect wheel for a harlequin VW though.

If you like (or can live with) the colors that's a sweet deal. I might be able to live with them...or try leather dye.
Watching this auction.

Oh man, I just bought a wheel for my race car. Still, that is funky as hell. Really neat.

IIRC the VW folks with the Harlequin cars go nuts over these things... maybe shilling it over on the Vortex would be a profitable idea...

Do you have the dish on this wheel? Looks like it might be a couple of inches, but hard to tell.

It's not much dish at all. I measure about 1 -1/4" or 32mm for metric folks.

This is perfect - about two weeks ago I decided that one of these Momo Benetton wheels would be the perfect addition to my mint green Miata track car (pic below). I searched a few forums and couldn't find one, and just as I was giving up I find yours!
You have paypal, sir. Looking forward to receiving!

Got your Paypal Nick. Thanks! I will put it in a box and get it in the mail in the morning. I'll email the tracking number when I get it.
I like the mint green on the NA too. The benetton wheel will be perfect with that.

Awesome. Glad to see the wheel go to a good home. By the way, I sold those wheels when they were new.
