Saturday, July 20, 2024 -- Long Beach Model T Swap -- Part 7 - Wood Steering Wheel with Hub (Fox Automotive Prod. Corp.)

The hub appears to be an aftermarket steering wheel lock. My guess is that it's a steering disconnect. Thus, the vehicle cannot be steered if it's not engaged (with a key mechanism). |

The hub also incorporates an electric horn button. |

Found this online. Didn't know there was a brand of car called FOX. Don't know if the car company had anything to do with the accessory company... |
