: Steering Wheel Ideas?

Trying to find the perfect steering wheel for my 63 Nova. I run a Flaming River rack and pinion manual so I need a 14.5-15" diameter! Don't want anything larger than 15" and nothing smaller than 14.5"
Looking at what I could find on the net all I can find is the Grant 967 and Grant 1170

Anyone have any other ideas? Most stock stuff is 16" from what I can tell. I want it to be classy and sharp looking. Wood or Leather are my preferences. Classic Industries has a nice leather 3 spoke but its only 14" :(

I bought a 4 spoke Grant wood wheel for my camaro, and I think it looks nice. I like both your choices.

Brian,
I just looked at the pics of your Nova (NICE!) and think the style you have there now or atleast another black wheel would best suit the interior. I don't think the Grant Wood or the Red one will look good in there. Just my opinion so don't take it to heart..ok :)

Thanks guys yea leaning towards the 1170. Might have it recovered in Leather by a local interior shop down the road. Nova is planned to be painted Red someday so colors are changing a little.
