Still looking for steering wheel
I posted this a few months ago but thought I would try again. I would like to put a 3 spoke steering wheel (aluminum spokes with black rim) on my truck but was hoping not to have to shell out repro prices (about $500 Canadian by time all accessories are added in) for a new one. Does anyone have one in decent shape they would like to part?
Here is a pic of what I would like: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...spokewheel.jpg |
I know what that is, very nice, Ive had 2, 1 LS5, 1 396
How much are you willing to pay in US dollars |
Wheel
Have you looked on Ebay .I think they have reproductions for about $175 US. Where did you find that picture ? I have a 1970 SS396 right now that is a factory Cranberry Red car with code 788 Factory Red Bucket seat interior .I wish it looked like that one .Frank

Not sure if this is exactly what your looking for, but I located this one on eBay.

Thanks everyone. I can buy a repo here for $350 Canadian or so, but that does not include horn cap or taxes. I was hoping to pay around 200 or so US for a good used one. I will see what I can do with that last ebay one. Thanks again.

Used Wheel 200.00 US. 23% Exchange 46.00 PST & GST 34.00 Shipping 15.00 Total 296.00 CDN. and depending how its shipped you wil have to pay broker fees of at least 8.00 or more if UPS , Fed Ex etc is used. You might as well buy the new one here. Have you tried dealin with RPM here in Saskatoon? |
I don't know, but I'd like to have the car that that wheel is attached to!

I found mine complete in a Buick Skyhawk for 15 bucks. I still stumble across the odd one in other than black once in a while. It's been along time since I've found a black one but it's still worth lookin'.

I really like those wheels and have considered buying one for my Blazer.
Grant sells a repo that looks pretty good. It's the 967 model: http://www.grantproducts.com/ The MSRP is about $160 or so US with the bowtie horn button. One issue is that the dish is over 4" and I would be afraid that our trucks column setup is so close now that it would put the wheel too close to you. |
Try WWW.summitracing.com . They have a repo with foam grips for 68.00. Its Grant #969

StingRay: I have looked at Skyhawk wheels, but always see colors, not black. They are nice, but I need a black one so I guess I have to pay the $.
Already Gone: I might try RPM today. One repo guy in Ontario quoted me 500 bucks for complete setup. Original Parts Group wants $152 for wheel alone, or $250 for a kit with horn cap, etc. $250 converted to USD is $299, so even with shipping it might still be cheaper to buy across border. I don't mind paying for good parts, but I have seen buckets/console (and your newer buckets) on here for that amount. At least others have an idea of what this stuff will cost now. I am going to check around to see who will give me the best deal. Thanks to all who responded. |
