I think the original rosewood wheels looked nice
also the original plastic ones looked ok
I really prfer the steering wheels they used in the mid 70's camaros, I have an original plastic one that is in nice shape - but I will probably just leave it in the box it is in right now
as for why, why, why - same reason some people jack the back end way up in the air. Or how some people like to paint flames on their cars
to each his own

That one looks 1000% better than those stupid Autozone Grant steering wheels you see all the time.

Hey! What's wrong with the Grant wheels? :boxing:



They are better than ... See where this is going? If you don't like something, your entitled to your opinion. It's usually best, however, to keep it to yourself unless you are asked to share it. Andy69 -- not slamming you, just using your post to make a point to the original poster.

Got one in my 'velle, too. Mine's a little different, but it's got the wood with the rivets. I love it. It's the first thing I changed when I bought the car 5 yrs ago. Your outvoted, dude.

I'm not going to pre judge anyone's reasoning but if you take your original wheel with six cracks in it and fill those with JB weld, spend 20 hours sanding, priming and painting you have a brand new looking wheel.

So how much time are you willing to play in this hobby? JB weld is a few bucks.

Gentleman and Ladies,

Lets remember, this is a hobby and everyone has a right to do with their car as they please. If you have something nice to say, tell the owner. If not, keep it to yourself. Someone may not like what YOU have done to your car and it does hurt to hear it. JMHO

Bill,
I couldn't agree with you more. Is it just me, or does there seem to be more and more posts, of people with their nose in the air, trying to point out negative things about others?

I guess I am now guilty of it.:noway:

 

[vegadan]

[74bowtie]

Ahhh -- the anonymity of the Internet. How many of the people making negative remarks here would even think about doing so face-to-face? Funny thing is, I've only been lurking here for about four months and have identified several people that I've actually met in person, or have been in very close proximity to at one time or another. Just something to think about.

What are the options for something other than a stock steering wheel? I would love to replace the standard wheel in my 71 Malibu.

The sky is pretty much the limit. As long as you are able to buy a hub adapter that will mate the wheel of your choosing to the steering column. Most after market wheel manufactures have a standard pattern on their wheels, and some are interchangeable. Pick your wheel, and then buy the appropriate adapter. If you are looking for a stock-looking wheel, take a look at OPG or other parts retailer specializing in your model of car. You can always get crazy and have a custom designed wheel made from billet aluminum, and can even have it done to match your wheels if that's something you like.

how about one of those chrome chain wheels,now that would be cool huh
