i have a pretty good one..mising the horn cap and guts..wheel and hub only

 

I have one in the for sale section for $65 plus $10 shipping, brand new.

 

You're probably looking for an original but I have a brand new reproduction with horn cap, hub, horn contact, and screws for sale. $299 plus what ever shipping is. I'll post up pictures if you or anybody else is interested. Thanks

 

I have a black cap but no rocket I could sell.

 

I need a complete steering wheel guys.
The hub, cap, steering wheel.

I’m looking at the re-pop one, I think I might go that route I know they don’t look exact but they look pretty good for the money

 

PM sent

 

Thanks bought one!!!

 

Hey Johnny, did you find a nice OEM one or did you go repro? I had a decent OEM on my car before but it was really sticky and the front grain was gone. I was able to clean it up pretty good with 90% alcohol and it stayed good for several years until I sold it. It’s hard to find an original with good grain on the front so I settled with a reproduction. It may not be exactly the same as the original but it is pretty good and it’s nice to have some grain texture on the front where it can be seen.

 

I found a good used one that I needed to paint hub and cap but decided to go with the repop.
$300 complete with shipping.
brand new never used. Pic below

like you said they look alittle too good.
i have had repops before on a 70 Buick GS

 

Nice score! The repro wheel alone is $250 new. I bought mine slightly used for a good price so I can’t complain. Now you just need to get the car so you can install it. Do you plan on keeping this one long?

 

original ?

 

I get board don’t know what I want half the time I do enjoy the hunt! the parts research too.

 

90% alcohol and what? I tried Simple Green and a Scotch-Brite pad on my red Starfire wheel. The stickiness came back in a week.

 

Just alcohol. I used the blue shop paper towels and I wiped it down until the rags stopped turning black. It has to be the 90% though, I know from others experiences that the 90% will remove tar or residue that the 70% will just smear. The car was parked in the garage and not exposed to the sun, so that may be why it didn’t come back. Still sticky free about three years later when I sold the wheel with only the one initial cleaning.

 

Thanks 4speed455, I'll give that a try.

 

I'm gonna clean my brain with alcohol soon.
