Hi Chris,

Can you send me a pic please??

 

send me a email address chrishallie65@yahoo.com

 

list has been updated.

 

What kind of steering wheel are you looking for?

 

the factory one and would consider the 442 4 spoke if in saddle tan.

You know that in 72 the factory 4 spoke wheel and center caps were black. The tan one you are describing is the 'Starfire' wheel that came with the Omega and is smaller (14.5") instead of the larger 15.5" black wheel.

 

thanks, I didn't know that, I would even be more interested knowing its a smaller wheel as long as it can still bolt up.

 

Yes,the smaller diameter wheel will still bolt up.The '73-'77 Cutlass also had a saddle colored 4-spoke wheel. I have one and have a saddle colored horn pad to match.
Sorry to tell you that I don't want to sell. They are on eBay from time to time and maybe someone here has one. Good luck---it took me a while to find a nice one that wasn't all nicked up or sticky.

 

You need to take into account the gage cluster and the column you have. Pretty much ANY late 60's 70's or up to mid 80's wheel will bolt up to that column. A 14.5" wheel may obscure parts of the gages unless you have tilt. The stock steering wheel is also 15.5", but has a large open space to view the cluster. And, it's not as thick as the sport wheels.

I'm basing my comments on the fact that I replaced my stock wheel with the N34 4 spoke wheel a number of years ago. While it's ok (because it's 15.5"), when I add the tilt column to the car, it will be perfect. I tried smaller wheels (like Grant) that were 14 or 14.5" and they blocked the view to the speedo really badly. Just thought you might like some comparisons.

 

The sport steering wheel would have the black rim,but the hub & button would be interior color.My 72 has the same dark saddle interior,and came with the sport wheel when new. I have a spare dark saddle horn button,if anyone has a sport wheel.the hub is cast aluminum,and can be painted the correct color.
The later sport wheels were slightly smaller,and the rims were colored to match the interiors,but they will fit & function the same.

 

thanks for all the feedback. I guess just to play it safe, I will go back to my original thoughts and try to locate the factory original steering wheel. I already have the black sports wheel and don't like the way it looks and feels in my pretty plain cutlass convertible.

 

If you are still looking I think I have a saddle tan one in the garage Let me know and I'll check and if I do I'll take some photos.

Hijack...
I think it's oddly cool that there's another person named Doug in NJ with a green '72 Cutlass Supreme! What are the odds??

Good luck with the steering wheel hunt. I personally like the 4 spoke black wheel.

 

Hi yes still interested, thanks for reminding me. please send pics.

 

I also have a saddle one. I changed my interior to black so I have a steering wheel for a 68 cutlass. It's in rough shape but I heard you can get them restored. I have no need for it and will send it to you if you want.

 

thanks but I dont think its the same.

 

Fender top chrome... are you talking the small peices up near the windshield?

 

yes the ones with the rubber seals.

 

I'll take a look at my parts car when I get home. I know the drivers side piece is there and looks OK at a glance, but will get actual condition and some pics when I get home.

ok thank you, but don't go crazy if you think they aren't in nice shape, I already have driver quality 10 footers.

 

still looking for the tan wheel? i have a 72 supreme coming in two weeks with a nice saddle interior chris

 

Sirlexus, just PMed you.
