Default Steering Wheel

Has anyone seen the quality in the Grant 930 steering wheel.I am not looking for a OEM wheel just a nice wheel that is somewhat close. I like the smaller size. It would be going in a modified 1968. They have 2 finishes one is dark mahogany and the other is light walnut. Thanks

Don't know about the Grant wheels, but I bought a 14" leather-wrapped wheel from Rik's Corvette Parts (N.C.) which is very similar to a stock wheel...3 spoke with slots, but it's chrome instead of brushed steel. It was $99 and I used my interior vinyl dye to recolor it.

I have never figured out how to post photos on this site. But, if you send me a PM with your e-mail address, I'll send you an attached photo of the finished product.

I have a grant dark mahogany, and like it a lot. Not sure the spoke design is the same as the one you are looking at, but it is a quality wheel..

The grant wheels just don't look right to me. I just bought a repo wheel for my 68 for $140.00 plus shipping. PM me if you want the contact info.

I have the mahogany one in my '77 and the finish on the wood is superb..smooth as silk and the aluminum spokes are like a mirror finish...Just love it.
Good luck with yours

to post a picture, just quote a post with a picture, and you will see how it was inserted into the post. Cut, paste, and you have it done.
Nice steering wheel replacement, BTW!
