Chrome and black 4 spoke is cutty. I bought it for 40 with no hub. But the 3 spoke corvette hub was close enough to use for a minute. About 20 years ago i traded a camaro 4 spoke wheel for the corvette 3 spoke straight up.

The things i tend to keep, will forever amaze me.

Well- in this case some parts have come in handy. I like that offset lever- looks pretty cool there.

thats what i thought. cant wait to get it in the car and see if stays still and dosent twist when you push up or down on it. it got tight right there,so maybe no problems.

I used the steering wheel and hardware from a 76 vette to keep the look as factory as possible. I used the upper column parts from a 74 Cadillac. So everything from the tilt down is original. The most expensive part of the whole upgrade is usually the wheel. Mine cost $100 just for the wheel. converting a g3 column to a tilt/tele - Page 2 Img_0410
