    I am looking for a complete woodgrain steering wheel and horn bar and bezels for a 64 Wildcat. These are similar to the Riviera wheel, just with a different emblem on the horn bar. Needs to be in show condition.
    Thank you

    Mark,

    You don't want much. There may be a NOS horn bar on ebay with a BIN of $525. A wheel alone just sold for over $300, and the cap you want is next to impossible to find because I think it was a 66 only item for the Wildcat, Topcat may know better on the cap.

    Good luck.

    Larry,

    I saw one of these on a 64 sometime ago, I quess the operative word here is "one" so I know it will be a pretty rare item.

    It is just something I would like to have for one of my cars, worth a try, right :TU:

    As far as price, it's kind of like the car restoration game, there is nothing cheap about this hobby.

    No.
    Mike, that one is only correct for 1964-66 Chevy Chevellle, Nova, Impala, and Corvair.
    Here is a picture of the one Mark wants, I think. :puzzled:

    Robert has a winner, but I thought it had a "Wildcat" emblem in the cap. That is a nice looking wheel, how's the hornbar?

    Hey, Rick, that's quite a collection you've got there. :Brow:
    What can I say?
    My priorities have gone all askew.
    I will miss it. :ball:
    I know that it is getting adopted by someone who will adore it. :TU:
    Besides, If I ever feel the urge to splurge on another then I know a certain Bonehead that has more than two fists-full of 'em. :3gears:

    Mark,
    Those are hubcap and rally wheel center medallions.
    They would make nice looking horn caps, though. :TU:
    I'll keep the tri-sheild cap if you won't be needing it then. :bglasses:

    Topcat Got TORQUE?

    I've made 15-20 custom Wildcat wood wheel caps for customers using the 1966-70 finned hub Wildcat medallion. Mark, you probably ran across some of my handi-work :Brow:

    Peace WildBill
