If you have a 58-60 blue Al Knoch interior, what color steering wheel do you have?
I have a 58 and I'm looking for a repro steering wheel that matches my Al Knoch blue interior. I found out from Al Knock that the blue they use from 58-60 is all the same color...just the pattern is different.
I also found out that the original 58 steering wheel was a very pale blue...called "gray blue" and it doesn't match the interior at all. It looks more like a faded blue than anything and although it maybe original looking, I don't like it.
I was told from Corvette Central that "Frost Blue" would be correct, but then I was told by Dave at Crane's corvette that Jewel blue is a better match than the Frost Blue.
So instead of relying on the dealers as to what blue matches the Al Knoch blue interior, I thought I would reach out to the Forum.
And yes, I understand that none of the wheels match exactly, but based on the responses I get here, I should be able to determine the one that matches the closest.
