[Roadsters] alt steering wheels

[Mark Sedlack]

I used a Grant signature series wheel on my '66 1600 - installed using Grant
adapter - 4581.

There is a rubber, accordion-like cover that goes over the silver portion.

This was the first upgrade I did when buying my roadster, because I found my
hands cramping up because of the small diameter of the rim.

Also, reduced diameter of the wheel (13 inch) made for more knee room, and
easier in/out of the driver seat.

Grant has lots of period looking options, and the kit number is.... (better
search the archive before ordering),   1189 or 1184 I think, very fuzzy on
that one, might start with a 14 instead of 11.

 

The nice ones are kinda pricy, but take your time and realize it is one of
the most stared at things on a car, so get something you like.

 

And if ayone figures out how to dismantle the plastic horn button that says
Grant a (so I can replace with a Datsun sticker off e-bay) let me know..
