Wood Steering Wheel
Chevrolet CMP's did use wooden steering wheels on late production models i.e. 1944. Ford's never had a wood steering wheel. GMC CCKW's and DUKW's also used the same wheel I believe.
Is your friend interested in selling his steering wheel? A friend of mine is restoring a 1944 Chev C60S. Unfortunately prior to him purchasing, the previous owner took the cab roof off (for a reason yet unknown) and left the truck outside for a number or years which caused the wood wheel to rot. I am sure he would be interested if your friend has no need for it and would like to sell it.
