WTB 67-8 Steering Wheel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**breeh** · 11-03-2003, 03:15 AM

I am looking for a 67-8 steering wheel that is original black. I already have one that I can paint if I can't find one. Also, I would like a chrome "Chevrolet" horn cap for the same with little to no pitting. If you have one that you would like to sell let me know. Thanks!

Breeh;

Are you going to run this on a tilt column? I am hoping to do this and am still trying to find 1st hand knowledge of it working and fitting well.

Part of "my approved" restifications of these trucks.

cheyenne10, I am going to run it on a tilt. I will let you know how it goes.

Did they make a stock black column in 67/68? I have seen the silver, fawn, tan, gold, blue, green & red ones..... I have one repainted black by board member but for finished truck it may need redone. I always hoped to research prepping and painting one black myself but worry about paint holding up to daily use.

Good luck, I guess I'm not the only one with these good ideas!!

I'm running a 67-68 wheel on my tilt column in my '67 and it fits fine. I still need to paint mine though.

Come to think of it, I don't think that I have seen a black column/wheel before either in a 67-8. Hmmm...

FYI, the 67/68 steering wheel was run in the C/40 & bigger trucks well into the 80's. We have an 86 (I think) at the shop right now with a brand new looking wheel in it.
Just something else to look in when going through the junk yards.

**breeh** · 11-04-2003, 01:42 AM

Thanks for the info Andy! I will look in some of those as well.
