Custom Steering Wheels

Looking at getting a nice Mahogany steering for my 1965 Cutlass and was wondering where everyone is getting their steering wheels. Thanks for the help

I have an old Grant steering wheel that came on mine when I bought the car. Works great with the exception of the cheap horn buttons.

So I ended up ordering an Forever Sharp (Wood Series) Steering Wheel. I requested them to engrave the 65 in the steering wheel horn button and they did it free of charge. I was very please with the quality of the steering wheel and adapter. Plus their customer service was top notch.
15" Chrome Classic Dark
6 Hole 2-Piece Adapter - Black - A05

The box the steering wheel came in.

Thanks Allan. To answer your question it is a 15" Chrome Classic Dark with the 6 Hole 2-Piece Adapter - Black - A05. Price was $180.00 for everything.

I like the 15" sizing and I think you will love it when it's installed. Pricing is very reasonable for what you got. Thanks for sharing!
