No pics yet, but I do have a few of those in my garage that look exactly like that one. Ah man.....didn't realize you were in Fredericksburg. I was just up there a week ago.

No pics but my truck has a aftermarket foam wheel. Durning the damp winters up her, the foam gets covered with mold! Right now, I have a fuzzy "green" wheel.

Oh yeah, the horn is broke, so watch for finger :p

Here is the one ton longhorn's old wheel. Rare "see through" wheel. They called it the panoramic spoke.

Fram=Poo, get a napa filter, they are made by wix filters and actually filter the oil. "NEW FRAM OIL FILTERS NOW WITH ESSENTIAL METAL SHAVINGS AND SAND!"

My wheel looks just like those nasty things. However, a while back I stopped by this guys house that had a 71 C10 and he gave me his old stearing wheel...for free. It only has one little crack in it! Wrong color, but it should paint up real nice.

Well, first thing I did when I got my truck, was change the steering wheel. The original one isn't in bad shape, but I hated the size!! Driving a bus is right!! haha

Jwill41, your old wheel has a tumor.


Here's mine. I got a super smoking coupon deal from JC Whitney a few years ago. The wheel and kit ended up being about $10 including shipping. Cheap enough!
