What year horn button - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**ScottH** · 01-09-2014, 11:19 AM

Can anyone shed some light on what year this horn button is from?

Thanks
Scott

That's a tough one Scott. May not be for a truck. It looks very similar to a 65 Impala. There is one on ebay but no description other than rat rod.

Thanks Tbone, I bought it from a board member here thinking it was different.
Just curious what the original app might have been.

That is 1966 Chevy truck, also same as 66 Nova. 65 Impala is taller with a plastic insert.

**60-66** · 01-09-2014, 12:17 PM

Correction: the button is the same as 62-65 Nova for 66 Chevy truck . This is for the standard 1966 Chevy truck steering wheel.

I know this is an old thread. However, I wondering if anyone knew if this would be a direct replacement for the deluxe horn ring on my '66 or did they use different steering wheels?

You would use a standard steering wheel for this style cap.

**MisterC** · 07-30-2015, 11:12 PM

Thank you.

**60-66** · 07-31-2015, 08:12 AM

Actually there are two different Standard steering wheels for 1966 . One uses the Deluxe style wheel without the horn ring and the above style horn cap. The other is the same 60-66 except it came in three different colors, gray, white and fawn.

**60-66** · 08-04-2015, 04:26 PM

Heres the two versions of 1966 steering wheels using the same wheel for Deluxe cab and standard cab. ( 66 also used the same standard wheel as 1960-1965 but in fawn so there are 3 steering wheels for 1966 ) Pictures show the different mounting for the horn button VS the horn Ring.

Thanks 60-66 for the pics and clarification. I wasn't aware that there were so many options in 66.

Wow,, 66 only!! I had no idea. Actually I tossed one in a tub I was taking to the swap meet and going to put a $10 price onthe entire tum (about worth that in scrap)

If anyone needs this 66 horn button,, send me a PM and I'll go dig through that tub. you can have it for the cost of a USPO small flat rate box!!! I surely don't need it!

**Classic v6 GMC's** · 08-04-2015, 05:29 PM

You learn something new everyday!! So what determined whether you got the 60-65 standard wheel with cap or the 66 deluxe wheel with cap on a 1966 standard cab?
