Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
^^ I agree...your truck and just my opinion...but I dont think it needs door logos. I do think the wheel looks good though.

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
What it is guys I painted this truck in 07 and it needs painted again I know in these pics it looks like it is fine and all but its not , im gonna have some fun with it and the door logos with my hometown LYNN CAMP SPEED SHOP will look cool , and if I take a notion and want it repainted all I have to do is park it out in the driveway and start sanding lol

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
Needs red shadow on that logo...and a touch of silver highlight. I'd go ahead and do some subtle pinstripe to go with it,since you're going that route. Whitewalls and "speed shop" don't mix,IMO. That truck will be screamin' for some aluminum slots,Cragar S/Ss,or Torque Thrusts. No self respecting speed shop owner could resist.
About the steering wheel? Not for me. Gotta stay era correct for the right vibe. I'd grab a red car wheel with horn ring...what that wheel wishes it was. That,or a good old red metalflake racing wheel like Moon now sells. Oh,and thanks for asking my opinion. Well,at least on one thing

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
Its a nice looking wheel but looks like it belongs in a street rod. Too modern looking. If you are going to go the speed shop from the 60s look you should go with a steering wheel from that era. Moon has some pretty cool 3 spoke wheels with round accent holes in the spokes. Lots of colors, even flaked ones.
Most of the stuff K stated works for me. I prefer a logo a little more understated though.

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
Love it! Wheels n tires look awesome! That steering wheel is cool. If u match the seat, door panels and dash pad it will be awesome!
Keep it old school!

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
This company looks to make old school looking steering wheels and judging by the price these are not chinese junk , im gonna own one in a week or two and as mention above will have to coordinate the door panels and seat ,

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
That's a cool looking steering wheel, here are some steering wheels you might like. Here is one picture of one of these wheels painted. These will fit on the 67-72 Chevy/GMC truck

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
Not crazy about the steering wheel either. A nicely restored original or just a 60's car wheel would look much more subtle and classy.

Re: Gonna work on my interior what do you think about this steering wheel
The truck, to my sense of taste, is pretty good. I like the steelies w/dog dishes, the logo, perhaps smaller and 'stylish', shading to complement the interior. The wheel is nice, real 'sano', as the old school hit rodders would say. And as has been noted, it's your truck, and it's your canvas!
