Default Steering wheel

on ebay America, A steering wheel. Unknown application (to me)
Listing number 222 716 702 626. Cheap!

O.K. I cant put up an image so here goes. US military green rubber rim. 4 evenly spaced steel round spokes. Steel horn cup. Looks like a key location rather than spline. Something like Diamond T is my guess.

Could it be from a tractor? Doesn't immediately look like a vehicle wheel to me.
Did a bit of search and came up with this

If you scroll down, This site shows a similar 3 spoke model, and a straight four spoke model

I realize this is a different wheel but still interesting nonetheless.

GM Service Bulletin B70 September 2, 1943 outlines a change from the covered spokes to uncovered spokes for Conventional Pattern Vehicles.

What's with all the "Wild Guesses"? It says in the listing what it's for; a Ford GTB or a Ford G8T.
WC dodges used a similar style wheel with 3 spokes, I'm sure the horn button could be adapted to fit.

Tony, I obviously didnt take that in. I have a dodge and steel spoked Dodge wheels. That has to be a cheap wheel. I wish I could find a good NOS carrier wheel at twice the price!
I think you would also find a late model CMP (round) oil pressure gauge in his listings as well (if you want to wade through it all)

To be fair to the guessers - the ad does describe the G8T as both 4x4 and 6x6 and then goes on to list 40+ makes as "may fit" which usually means one of two things - they haven't a clue what it really suits or are trying to make every search show thier item. (probably the latter since many of their listings do the same) If they don't know, I wish they would just say so instead of trying to mislead us. On the other hand, if it's a Ford steering wheel, why mention makes such as Fruehauf, Great Dane and Utility that I think of as trailer manufacturers (trailers don't generally need steering wheels).
