Here is an old 1976 Atari LeMans I fixed up:

Somewhere I've run across a picture of a MAME cab that is about what you are looking for....unfortunately I don't recall where I ran across it.
Basically the person built a standalone sub cab and mounted the steering wheels, shifters, and pedals onto.
You could slide it up in front of the regular upright cab and hook up a couple of quick connections to play driving games.
I'd like to do something similar eventually. Right now, I just use my two trackballs to play games like Super Sprint, but it's definitely missing that fun feel of just throwing a full 360 steering wheel around and watching your car go skidding sideways around corners!
EDIT:
Aha! This isn't the one I remember, but it gets the idea across....

I knew I wanted pedals before I built my machine, so I planned for it and have pedals permanently fitted:

My steering wheel(s) are on removable panels of course.
