I want to say 10-24x1/2”, I’ll have to check though

Edit: Like others have said, 3/4”, not 1/2”

What year? I think the 79 might be different. But I can measure some in a few minutes.

On my 82 the screws that hold the steering wheel on are 10-24 x 3/4" flat head phillips screws.

Thank You very much, I measured the length and is total 0f 19mm what is 3/4 inch.
So it must be 10-24 by 3/4 in length. Awesome. My car is a 71 btw
