I had my 72 wheel done by Chuck Pelton here on the forum. He took my stock wheel and put on the leather padded outer just like the later model wheels. Many here have done the same thing.

I've got a 77, UGLY wheel, I want a wheel like this... Where's the best place to buy one?
Found this but it looks cheap.

And another thing, the horn button, do they all have post 76 emblem's on them? or do they make one with 77 up?

The 78-82 (77 with tilt/tele) stock wheels will bolt on. Aluminum spokes through 79; black spokes 80-82. You can probably find one in your interior color, but they can be cleaned up and dyed.
