If you have a 60 parts book, you will see that the round wheels are listed. I have an NOS black frost round wheel I bought from Mitchell's about 20 years ago,

The book Imperial: 1957-1963 has photos of the interior of a 60 Custom with the round wheel. I've never seen photos of one other than those.

I vaguely remember reading a period magazine article saying that "those who prefer the round wheel can order one instead" or something to that effect.

Hi again -

 

I was just looking at a '60 Crown sedan on E-bay and noticed what appears to be s stock steering wheel on the car except it is round.  Mine on the other hand is more rectangular.  Where different shaped wheel an option in 1960?  I see no mention of it in any of the literature I've looked at.
