Re: Finally swapped steering wheels

Horn works, not the driver tho...
While I was at it I replaced all the horn guts with the taller contact cup.
It looks like its on the seat but the seat was all the way forward at the time...being 5-8 and trying to keep to a six pack instead of a case helps!

Re: Finally swapped steering wheels

Kinda figured the SS wheel belongs in a Chevelle and a truck wheel belongs in a truck.
