Aftermarket Wheel to Fit Cadillac Tilt-Tele Column?

With the tilt lever on it? I believe the lever comes off with the stock Cadillac wheel. Maybe a Corvette wheel would look sporty? Will a Caddy column even swap into a square body truck?

The wheel comes apart. The tele lever attaches to a round plate on top of the forcing screw. It will be different on the earlier columns. Lecarra still lists wheel adapters for the tilt tele. I have one in a Nash. I still believe that you can build a hybrid with the Caddy knuckles and covers on the truck base. Jay
