BRM center caps came already installed in the wheel.
I am guessing they are early reproductions that were stored near a window.

Hi richard. The old guy I bought them from bought 8 of them new to replace the caps that he lost on his original BRMs back in 70 and only used 3 of them before he sold his bug he said and didn’t use them all and forgot about them until I dug them up digging thru his parts. They are originals for sure they match the ones I have on my BRMs front and the backside aswell they are 100% originals

Another rare bird for sure original empi Datsun 15’ steering Wheel. The lady owned it for 30 plus years she bought an old 70’s Datsun and it was in it. Her and her husband took the Datsun completely apart to restore but couldn’t put it back together and ended up selling the car and kept the steering wheel until i bought it from them. Sadly the original hornbutton is long gone and I’m in need of one soooooooo HOOK ME UP BRO’s !!!!!

My in-the-family-since-69 Bug had one of these. It was installed by my parents as a gift to my grandfather. I swear there is a photo of it somewhere, but I have yet to find it in my family's photo albums. Sadly, the Bug was stolen and stripped in the 80s and the dash was ripped out.
