… Can someone steer me in the right direction need help identifying? New Horn Button GM 1940 Deluxe Steering Wheel, Group 2.826 Part # 413728.  This is a domed 3 3/8’’ Lens. There was a hand written tag stating this to be 1940 Deluxe Steering Wheel but no Make or Model.

Thank you, Ric

We can eliminate Chevrolet since neither Group #2.826 or part # 413728 are in the Chevrolet Master Parts Catalog for 1929 - 1948.

I could not find that group in my 57-0lder parts book for OLDS...

 

Dr Watsons reply mentioned looking up the number itself, which I've never done before, in the back of book.  Yes it is there: but only by group and part number and price of $1.37

 

I will try another book if I find it.  One thing I noticed is the 400,000 range of various parts are in the 40s.  Maybe that is why I don't see it in the front of book?  or maybe I'm in the V8-era parts section, and there could be a 40s pre-V8 section I missed?

Just for the heck of it, here is a steering wheel with horn button for a 1940 Buick Roadmaster.

Here is the steering wheel for a 1941 Buick Roadmaster.  The diameter of the lens is about 3-3/8 inches.  If you would like to sell the lens, please send me an AACA Forums private e-mail.

Thanks,
