I was surprised they would have this much interest. Wow, if someone can get this leather wrap down, they would have something of a small business. Most of these wheels are going to get worse if they are bad already.

That steering wheel is in really good shape, but not $315 good lol

 

apparently it is. first rule of business, it's worth what someone will pay for it.

 

Ive got two just like that one stored in my garage.

 

I also have one just like that packed away in the garage.

 

Be careful before you bid though as this will fit any 82-89, but it isn't correct for 84-89 cars.

 

3 deep groves on the spokes... early cars. This is possibly why it is commanding more.

 

Can somebody explain to me the differences in these wheels over the years? The "3 deep grooves in the spokes" comment threw me off a bit. I thought the only difference between the "early" and "late" wheels was the thickness of the actual hoop, and I thought it was 86 or 87 where that transition occurred.

 

Jim, look at the steering wheel spokes. The bottom spoke has a center groove in it like the two side spokes. That was only on the 82 and 83 cars. The 84-89 Z28s only had the groove on the side spokes.

 

that wheel sold for US $420.00. I guess I need to start looking for good early wheels in the junk yard or cars being parted. Steering wheel puller might be in my future.

 

Huh. I never noticed. I need to go look at my wheel when I get home. I've got a wheel that I no longer use that's in very similar condition to the one that sold on Ebay. Makes me wonder if I should sell it.

Didn't the thickness of the hoop change somewhere along the way too?

 

Not that I know of, but I have been known to be wrong!!

 

Jealous. My steering wheel is wrapped in electrical tape from the PO
