MrC1 · 11-22-2005, 05:18 PM

Nice! Looks alot like the Grant wooden wheel, but the spoke design is different/better. Nice find!

muddpile · 11-22-2005, 07:56 PM

It almost looks like an english sportscar wheel of some sort from the 70's. Neat!

**special-K** · 11-22-2005, 11:06 PM

Nice steering wheel.I`ve never seen the double slot design like that.It`s really a slick look.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 11-22-2005, 11:58 PM

Nice looking wheel I have never seen them with the 2 slots cut in them just the one slot... L.M.C. has steering wheels similar to that in the front of there catalog..

It looks like a Cal Custom wheel from the late 60/early 70 era. Used to see
them for sale at Pep Boy's many, many years ago.

**Palf70Step** · 11-23-2005, 08:18 AM

Nice find. Subtle enough differences to catch your eye. It'll set off your truck for sure.

**tnblazerk5** · 11-23-2005, 11:18 PM

71-longbed · 11-24-2005, 11:36 AM

I have one of those Rosewood wheels on the wall in my garage......I think it was originally on a 67 SS 396 chevelle......I have all the horn pcs(Vette cap with the checkered flags) aftermarket. It was to go on my longhorn.......but I just caint get with "tossin" that much steer wheel when I am trying to have fun! Its hard to beleive thats worth 400-500 bucks now! THAT WAS A FREE WHEEL, with 50 bucks worth of pcs

not for sale @ any price......I am gonna sit on her for another 10 yrs or so....(call it greed, or retirement!).....
