Default 36 banjo wheel question

Wheelskins is putting leather wrap on my banjo wheel and they need to know where the notch goes in the hub on the steering column. My car is at the paint shop in pieces so don't have it in front of me. They want to put the seem in the right place! Thanks!

The notch locates at the 6 o'clock position when when car is going straight ahead

Maybe this drawing will help! With the car going straight ahead the notch is usually in the 6 o'clock position.

The blue color depth does not show very well in the picture, can't wait to get the car outside where I can really see it! Its taken a long time but as they say good things are worth waiting for! Getting ready to put the engine and trans back in, then interior gets next.

one more view from the side. The color inspiration came from Dan on the forum. Next up time to put the motor and trans back in!

I think its a bit lighter shade than Washington blue, its the color I wanted to paint since my dad bought the car in 1977. My guy has done a great job with it, will be nervous to drive the car on the road for the first time!
