what steering wheel?

i wanna get another steering wheel for my 64. i want a stock style wheel, i love the big original style wheels. just wondering when i hit the swapmeet should i be looking for 64-66 steering wheels . or could i just look for any 60s chevy steering wheel. i esp like the 59 impala wheel but i know everyone does and the prices show that. thanks

I think 68 and 69 are the same then change to the vinyl covered squarish horn pad,not as good looking to me.but thats what they say about opinions they are like a$$holes,everybody has one

Re: what steering wheel?

I can't tell you if you'll run into compatibility issues with the horn button - mine has a dash mounted button.....but when my `63 came with a little 13" wheel and manual steering I went looking for something bigger, quick! I scored a `64 Impala wheel off eBay and it bolted on plugNplay. Gotta love GM interchange.

Love that Bel-air wheel. I'm thinking about using a '65 Impala wheel myself. I don't have a picture at the moment though.

I think that full ring wheel is off a '58 Bel Air. '59s had the half-ring style like the Deluxe wheel on most of our trucks.

You might be right, i went crazy with the research that i just gave up. so i just painted it my-self and sent the ring out for re-chrome. a friend of mine sell's these wheels so if anyone is interested pm me and i'll get you his number.

Re: what steering wheel?

I found one for a 65 Impala, would that be generally the same wheel? what is a fair price for one in fair but restorable condition?

Re: what steering wheel?

I like that 58/59 wheel. But i can see some jerk about to hit me and i go to blow the horn fast and break the ring, lol. I like the horn cap from the 62 too.

Re: what steering wheel?

I really like the 1966 Wheel. Here is the Custom Steering Wheel for my '66. The horn ring and button have been rechromed. I searched a while to find the wheel with the stainless separating rings so I can do 2 tone paint on it.

Re: what steering wheel?

Does anyone have a picture of the 1966 deluxe wheel that has the horn ring cap with the proper paint scheme? Was it just blacked in or did it have colors in it?
