Uncracked green steering wheel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Pulled off a low mile 71 with only one minor issue. Has all the horn parts including the horn button and the green is really good. What's it worth?

That really is a green steering wheel. I see olive steering wheels called green for sale and expect to see this. It's kinda hard to find one this color. It's a great find, especially in uncracked condition. The only thing is, this color was a 71/72 (maybe '70?) base trim-only color. It will be most valuable to a person doing a stock restoration on a base truck, and I don't see much of that going on. So, pretty tricky on pricing. Based on rarity and condition it should be at the high end, but only to someone needing this specific color. An original uncracked wheel value is in the $200-300 range, depending on overall condition and disirability, although you'll see profiteers looking for more. What's tricky is the most common wheel, that was used in vans for many years beyond '72, is the black one yet is the most desirable because it is the only color for tilt column. It could be worth top dollar to the right person. Could sell right away, could seem like it will never sell.
