Does Anyone have a 4 spoke sport wheel horn button?

Hey fellas, while the winter is here and things are slow in the shop I am collecting some parts, I am loking for a 4 spoke horn cap? I picked up a 3 spoke wood sport wheel for my 69 and I am looking for the cap that attaches to the horn assembly.

any help would be appreciated.

What kind of three-spoke wood wheel? You may already be aware of all of this, but just in case, the Deluxe wheel used in 1969 did not use the horn cap used on the 1968 or 1970-up sport wheels. If you have a 1968 three spoke wheel, that does use the same horn button and contact as the 1970-up four spoke wheels, however the hub is different. The 1968 hub is smaller in diameter and won't fit the 69-up steering columns. The 1970-up hubs for the four spoke wheel won't work on the three spoke wheel because the third spoke is overlapped at the center and requires a notch in the hub. You can notch one of the 70-up hubs, or you can get a Buick or Chevy hub for the three spoke wheel on a 69-up column. Note that the Corvette hubs are taller than the A-body and Camaro hubs.

I have a very nice 70-72 style that was originally blue. I did a complete disassemble of it and dyed it black with SEM Landau black. I will add photos of it later.

$60.00 shipped.

Joe I picked up one of these type of wheels, and a new 3 spoke chevelle hub for a 69 and up diameter larger because of the locking wheel/ignition



So I am hoping that the horn cap would work from a 70 and up 4 spoke wheel
like from one of these?




I hope I am right?

Yup, you're good. The horn contact ring is the same on both, so the Olds horn button works fine.
