67 Van Steering Wheel: Anyone running One?
Found one of these steering wheel / column in a junkyard last week in decent shape. Haven't seen any others around. I was curious if anyone was running one of these steering wheels.

Nice looking wheel. Is it the same diameter as a truck steering wheel?

I'd rock the steering wheel. Not far from what the stocker looks like but it'd keep the Gurus thinking. The diameter looks about the same.

Re: 67 Van Steering Wheel: Anyone running One?
IIRC the diameter is about the same,but the dish is less meaning the wheel would be farther away from the "spare tire".I have never run one in a PU though I have driven that style of van quite a few miles.Might be a cool way to throw some people off.

You know, I didn't see it but Chewy is right. It could be considered an up grade. And if you ever take it in the chest the horn button could be a cool tattoo/scar! A nice story for the grand kids!

The dash would be a COOL 64-66 swap also.

Re: 67 Van Steering Wheel: Anyone running One?
Interesting. Would that fit in the 64-66 pickup?
Yeah I think that the Van steering wheel would be something that is stock looking and adds some more character to the truck. I ended picking up a stock 67-68 pickup wheel in decent shape with both a Chevy and GMC horn cap for $17. Deal of the day. Think the Van wheel would cost me ~$20 also if I go grab it. |
