I've seen pictures of Phaeton 1935 Model 48-750 with Steel Spoke Steering Wheels and also those with The Standard Steering Wheels. Was "Banjo steering wheel" standard in De Luxe or an option, or is it something that the car owner has supplemented later? :confused:
 
'36 banjo steering wheel will fit and work well on '35 but would not be show correct on a '35 if that's of any concern.
 
Hi Ford friends!
Thanks for your replies. I know that De Luxe models got Steel Spoke Steering Wheels in May 1936. But could it be that the wheel was as option for all Model 48 during the latter part of 1935?
 
The Banjo wheel (part # 68-3600-B and C) was definitely not a 1935 option. The first wheel (68-3600-B) was benton grey and first appeared on engineering releases on 2/13/36. A second banjo (68-3600-C) followed later and was brown to harmonize with the mid year woodgrained dashes.
