Default steering wheel shim

Where would you buy a shim for a later model three bar wheel to fit on top of a flat Hub?
. So in case your Steering head dont have a slot you could still use wheel and head together

The drawing is kinda crude but the spacer works. One day I will make a good drawing. I made a spacer for the 69 Camaro wheel on the 65.

That is what I used and made my own. Be careful though as the drawing was a little smaller than what you need. Once you get your wheel, you can make your own drawing.
