WTB: smaller diameter aftermarket steering wheel for 63
 
I'm tall so I need a smaller diameter steering wheel and hub to mount it on my 63. My car has power steering so a smaller wheel will work just fine.
Looking for a wheel in very good shape. Must have a hub that fits my car.
Show me what you have.
Thanks.

Just thought I would let you know that Tall is toward the roof of the car. The other tall is what we all have problems with :rofl:

i'm 6'3" and I have the 68-73 Corvette wheel in my '63, with a tilt column
It works well.

I wished I knew what C3 wheel you guys are talking about because all the ones I have seen are 16" just like my 64's?

Likely the tilt is the only way it works.

Grant makes one but it's woodgrain. 13" I think. I painted one of mine and got another one leather covered so I could get a grip on it.:thumbs:

78-82 leather wrapped wheels 14.5", 3" dish, has step for center spoke. You can machine your original hub.

Eric Freeman offers a beautiful teak wheel 1" smaller in diameter than the original. Eric's wheels are beautiful and he's a real gentleman with a passion for his craft...
