cool old school Oldsmobile steering wheel and column

Post by tybob81 »

Any idea what year and model Oldsmobile column and wheel came out of. I found it at my buddies junkyard laying in a trailer.

It is dirty as hell, but should clean up well. The column is tight too.

That's cool you knew the year BobbyFord. I looked around on the internet and couldn't find it.

Incidentally, GM obviously used this same style wheel in different vehicle brands. I ran a cross a 1960 Buick LeSabre convertible today

Wonder if anyone would be interested in buying it on this site? I was going to use it in my 65 c30 crew cab, but I won't be building that till my 68 crew is done.
