steering wheel adapter for vette wheel ?

I have a 75 corvette steering wheel that I would like to put in my 80 truck. Was wondering where to get an adapter, Grant was no help at all when I e-mailed them. Are these steering wheels the same as chevelle ?

Re: steering wheel adapter for vette wheel ?

On my 70 I needed a 69 camaro adapter to put on a 60 corvette wheel.
But the column on the 73 and up is larger in diameter I believe, you may want to see if you can pull some dimensions from your column and find some for the adapters so you get one that fits clean.

67-68 Camaro hub works best on 67-72 trucks.
The 69-up Camaro hub is larger diameter and works best with truck that have the ignition switch on the column. (73-87)

I know this is an old post but what year steering wheel adapter did you buy to get the outer diameter of the adapter to match that of the steering column?

Since your truck has the larger diameter column (because of the ignition switch in the column) you need the 69-up horn adapter.
Buy one for a 69 Camaro or a 70 chevelle as your application.
