If you are going to put power steering in it and either modify or change the column your options are as big as your imigination.

As long as the rim of the wheel doesn't get closer to you or change position up or down except in the name of your personal comfort life is good.

I tried to buy a wheel for a 51 Bel Air off a guy on FB last night because I really like the looks but I got scared off by the methods he wanted to be paid by.

I've Got a Nardi wood wheel that was made for Miatas that I bought used from somewhere in Asia off Ebay a few years ago that I really like. I bought an adapter hub off another Ebay seller to put it on my 71 column.

Just do your figuring and measuring so that the wheel you choose fits in the right spot.

I still had the 68 Bench seat that my friend Gary gave me in the truck when the photo was taken. It's got a Silverado split bench now.
