I drive a '72 C10 Short-step and am wanting to replace my mammoth wheel for a smaller factory wheel off of one of your newer trucks. If anybody has one in good shape at a CHEAP price, please let me know.

Thanks for lettin' this old timer on your board.

Thanks, found a few on Ebay motors too.

Are you still looking? I have one in my '89 GMC Sierra that I'll probably sell if someone wants it(then I can buy a GT wheel). Whats Cheap for you? Shoot me an offer.

Oh, and welcome to the board!!!!!

Does your wheel say GMC on the horn button? I have a Chev is why I ask. I have been bidding on ebay and don't want to pay over $40 for the wheel including shipping. Let me know if it says GMC and if not, what condition is it in and maybe a pic.

Thanks!

'89Z71 · 09-03-2003, 11:26 PM

Yes it is a GMC horn button, sorry

72shorty · 09-05-2003, 02:09 PM

TTT, anyone else got a Chevy one from an 88 or newer?

Tracy,

Just wanted to write and say thanks for the wheel. I got it today. It arrived sooner than I expected and the packing was first rate. The wheel looks like new. Thanks so much! You are first class in my book!

Take care.

Tracy Focht · 09-15-2003, 05:18 PM

why thanks!!!!!!

72shorty · 09-16-2003, 02:24 PM

Hey Tracy! What year is the good looking ride of yours anyway? Trying to determine year of steering wheel.

Everything is great, just had some friends asking me about it...I think wanting one.

Thanks!

Doug, actually bought it a couple months ago from a friend in Winfield, KS. It's an '88, with a newer phantom front end. Truck has 106,000 miles originally and motor about 33,000 right now. TBI 350 with a 700r4 and 2.73 limited slip 10 bolt.
Get's great gas milegae, and runs awesome...truck is solid!

Your friends are looking for a truck, or steering wheel like yours?

72shorty · 09-16-2003, 03:37 PM

Both.

What is a TBI 350 I hear so much about?

Tracy Focht · 09-16-2003, 03:53 PM

throttle body injection....they are so-so...but nothing like a 450 HP smallblock....hehe

good street fuel injection setups tho...
