Poll for 1964-66 GS/Skylark Steering Wheels

Question?

Frank, will these be yet available in colors other than black (I need a red one)?

And, how much will they be?

Thanks in advance,
Steve.

They will be able to be repainted. BLACK is what I will have. Frank

 

Any update on the steering wheels? Put me down for one also.

Thanks,
Steve

Gentlemen my lastest prototype was delivered to my shop yesterday. But I'm on vacation. I will review it when I return. Frank

 

Way Too Go FRANK :beer

Frank, I'm fairly new to the board, but count me in, this post has been like traveling the yellow brick road, and trying to find a decent wheel seems to be the same kind of journey.

Just let me know when they are ready and shipping to 80919!!:TU:

 

I need at least 1 and maybe 2 black steering wheels for the 65 GS . The most important thing would be that it looks like new and original . I would think based on what I've read that a price of $349 to $389 would be most reasonable based on what I've heard a quality rebuild costs and the time it takes them .

66 skylark excellant condition probably could be used for making a mold for a repo.

 

Frank -

We'd love an update... THANKS

 

Nothing new. Still cosmetic issues. Frank

 

Frank, It was nice to meet you at Carlisle. The prototype wheels look like they are getting very close.

I know you are going to make sure they are right before you give the OK for the production run. I figured I would mention that to everyone, because that is part of production process and you can not put a time table on it if you want it right.


Hope to hear an update as soon as possible.

Thank you,
Bob

 

Any progress??

 

I have had requests for different color wheels. What is your opinions that I just make a wheel that CAN be painted to suit your car? Frank

 

Frank, I am ready for a black one when ever they are ready. How close is the black steering wheel? Thanks Ed

 

I think a "correct color" black wheel would be super... and then people can paint to match their other interior colors (red, saddle, etc...)... My .02

 

How many different colors were available back in the day for these wheels? If you know please post the colors.

 

I'm not sure of the "exact" color names, but the steering wheels always matched the interior (except white?)... So the 64-66 steering wheels came in:

Black
Blue
Red
Tan/Saddle
Green [Gran Sports did not come in green interiors (?)]

~~~~

Frank -- any word on when the black steering wheels will be completed?

Thanks

 

Nothing yet. Frank

 

Actually, there are more variations on the color:

Black
Dark red
Medium Blue
Light Blue
Tan
Dark Brown
Light Green
Charcoal Gray (came in cars with white interior)

I think there may also have been a dark green, but I haven't seen one before--all the others I have seen before (I have at least one of each in my parts room except for the charcoal gray, and light green).
