WTB Sport Steering Wheel

Anybody got a nice sport steering wheel for 72 Cutlass? Need one with saddle horn button and hub, if possible.

They make reproductions for around two bills. I Can't remember where I saw them though. I think opg has them.

When you say "sport" steering wheel I assume you are referring to the 4 spoke wheel? The wheel should be black for your model year no matter what color your hub or horn button is

(Part Group 6.513 Part number 9751871. You will find the part number molded into the back side rubber on one of spokes)

You can get vinyl/plastic paint from almost any body supply to paint the cover. FYI the colored wheels are not the same. They are referred to as the starfire wheel and are 1 inch smaller in diameter (14 1/2) instead of the 15 1/2. Also they are technically not correct for your car even though they will fit the spline on the column. It can also make it difficult to see the gauges with the wrong size wheel. They are also a different part number and have different stitching patterns.

You can also paint the hub to match your column, just prep it good first.

If you want a complete setup brand new you can get them from Parts Place, Fusicks, Year One, OPG etc for around 325.00. If you just want the wheel, they go new for about 225.00
