Re: STOCK 67-72 Steering Wheels
From what I know the 69-72 wheels had part # 9749753 whereas the later style wheels (vans?) had part # 335212. The grain pattern differed between the two. I have the later style wheel on my k20 and it's just as shiny as the OEM examples I have for 69-72 but the rim diameter feels slightly larger - I like the grip feel best with this style.
There are also differences in the wheel hubs as shown in this thread here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=575539
Here's what was a NOS saddle 69-72 wheel that I bolted on to a painted tilt column in my green Blazer with a repro horn button (that's an old school sew up grip protector removed from an early 60s one ton suburban).
