72 Steering wheel - downsized? who does it?

I've got visions of maintaining the OE look in my 72 but with a sized down version of the original school bus sized steering wheel. Newly registered so pardon my oversight if there's info w/in this database! If anyone has experience with this - I'd appreciate a lead.

Re: 72 Steering wheel - downsized? who does it?

Welcome to the site! I was just thinking about this again today. As far as I'm aware there is nothing available on the market. There is a neat thread where a 67-68 steering wheel was reduced in size.

Ah - good stuff! Seems I'll have a one of very few. I've got a gifted car buddy who's offered to re-size and lined up a leather wrap once its complete. LIkely a spring completion.
