Hi,

It is a Nardi steering wheel, some 6.9 has this as original. Yours can
be something like this:

or this:

It's original supplier for Ferrari and Porsche, too

HTH,

It's very cool. Nardi wheels were original in some of the worlds great
cars, and were fitted aftermarket to many others. I have one I used in a
911, and an Audi Coupe. It's on "display" in my bookcase now because I
don't have a car to fit it to. (Damn airbags!)
