Additionally, you might also contact Jeff Tourt (he’s the past president of the association). You can find an email contact form on the main page of Cessna 120/140 Association by looking under the “About Us” tab and then select Leadership. Jeff’s name and email form is under past president. You can send him an email and inquire. His company refurbishes the type control wheels, and he probably has the logo.

My fellow moderator John Cooper is correct, do you have the 1946 pretzel type wheels or the later type from 1947-1951?

Isn't that '46 picture mine? I think I recognize the black tape on the left spoke...

(If you're looking for the center for the '46 wheel I might be able to help you; that's why I asked.)

Jeff Tourt has refurbished the later ones in the past and can make them look like new. You can contact him through the main website under:
