Steering wheel opinions

Post by stang1986gt »

Need y'all's steering wheel opinions. My newly-acquired 67 F-100 needs a new steering wheel because the current one looks like one off of a go cart. Would you go with a stock steering wheel (kind of hits my belly but I'm losing weight!!!! :lol: ) or a nice grant wooden wheel?

Thanks!

If its the original steering column I would go for the original three spoke wheel with deluxe horn ring. Always thought that was a sharp looking wheel. but that's just an opinion.

Any good sources for a good used wheel? I can't find them new.

Yep, that looks right. And not a bad price including the horn ring.
