Default 68-72 Steering wheel??

I've got an older Vette wheel laying around.... I just don't know exactly what year it's from.... could be from a SS Chevelle too... it's 15" and black plastic simulated wood...in pretty decent shape...3 alum. spokes.... the bottom spoke is seperate and rivetted on. Pretty sure it came off my 72. Nothing written on it. Will post it for sale after we figure out what it's from!! Thanks everyone!

I can say that it's NOT for a 68 Vette. The 68 had a 16" simulated wood (not black) wheel.

Well....then maybe we can say 69-72? I'm pretty sure it's off my 72....so, what other years shared the same as a 72?

Well lets see.....

We don't know what it looks like, and we don't know what price it is.

Well, I was trying to figure out what it was from...before I put it up for sale...that's why there's no price. I know it's from my 72...but want to make sure it's not really from a SS Chevelle...if there's a difference.

69-70 Chevelles and 68-69? Camaros had an option for a sterring wheel like that

It's hard to tell by your description but it doesn't sound like a Corvette steering wheel, at least not for a C3. 69-72 steering wheels were not plastic.
