Default Wow, is my MOMO wheel this ancient?

I got this wheel in 98 for $10. The guy that sold it to me didn't know it was a MOMO and wouldn't have known better anyways. What struck me odd was it fit my Grant hub that I had on my Civic when I took the Grant wheel off to put this on. Do Grant hubs usually interchange with Momo hubs? I had been meaning to take pics to try and get the wheel identified, and this time I noticed what might be a date.

Here's the front


Here's the back with the date

December of 1982? That's pretty old
It's a great size and makes the car drive like a go-cart, I forget where I got the horn button but it's real OEM I think. I might have made it from an OEM button and a Grant button though, I forget

Anyone recognize this wheel?

Really it's not fat, it's just the prespective of the pic. It's really about as thick as my OEM integra wheel while being a whole lot smaller around.

I havnt seen that wheel before, so its very likely that the date on it is the date of manufacture. I like it , it looks like an oem wheel.

I didnt think Grant was interchangeable with Momo, I thought Momo was 5 bolt and Grant was 4. Nice find either way.

My Grant wheel is 5 bolt. All the Momos I've seen are 6 bolt.

Yup, Momo is 6 and Grant is 5, I didn't know Grant made a 6 hole adapter.

Ok I think maybe I smoke entirely too much weed, it had to have come with an adapter because my Grant POS wheel has one on it. So come to think of it, I got a MOMO wheel and hub adapter for $10. Thank god for beatnicks with girlfriends getting rid of old boyfriend's Honda toys.
