Not sure what you are seeing, but you truy have a rare steering wheel, one off, if it was white originally.

I had to pay $300 for a whole truck just to get a wheel that nice

Re: “Extremely rare Original vintage Chevy steering wheel”

I have seen members on this site argue over who gets to buy the NOS steering wheel.

I got one here with slight damage, it's much better than my original that came with the truck.

It's a pitty no one makes a good reproduction, one with a steel ring on the inside.

Funny you say that. I had a complete '82 squarebody dual headlight grille/core support I wanted to get rid of at Carlisle truck show one year. I guess it was before those trucks took off because no one was biting even at $50. I put free on it and still no one even asked about it. So I wrote "Free or best offer" just having fun. I had a guy walk up and say "Give me $50 and I'll take it. That's my best offer"

Rusted out oil pan...wow...but for $300 you still got a rear bumper, a sliding rear window, and other goodies that aren’t apparent from the picture!

Re: “Extremely rare Original vintage Chevy steering wheel”

That rusty white truck is a picture I nabbed off the internet years ago... for free. The steering wheel was still rust free. It's a truck like the ones you see advertised for sale "Good glass". When they say that and nothing about the body you know it's not good.

A friend of mine's dad bought a new '73 C10 and within a couple years his oil pan was leaking due to rust. Was just a chore truck, so not daily driven in salt all winter like most. I think GM hauled up some shipwrecks for that sheetmetal.
