Re: steering wheel pics please
look at the 58-60 impala, or 60-66 truck wheels, they both look similar. I think they look great!!

Re: steering wheel pics please
Stock or aftermarket column? Flat of dished? A lot of wheels after 1958 are dished and came on shorter columns so putting them on a stock AD column really tightens up the belly area.

Re: steering wheel pics please
Well dang it's upside down in the photo. One of my favorite wheels is the Nardi wood wheel that came in a lot of sports cars over the years. This one most likely came out of a Nardi edition Mazda Miata. Comfortable as all get out and they fit with most truck themes except the very traditional ones.

82 eldorado tilt/tele got it because the firewall side is relatively short.
Support column collar etc. are home made, details in the build thread. Column support starts at post 110, cover at 438.

So far, that steering wheel is what I'm looking for. You got an ebay link for it?

I can look it up, but I think it's a CPP column. I'm pretty happy with it.

Of course the item is gone, but here's a link to another wheel the same seller has http://www.ebay.com/itm/271461648024

You might contact them and see if they have access to any other wheels, I'm not sure who or what they are.

earlier in the year you were asking about mustII stuff, is your mustII installed?
what column do you have?
