Steering wheel

[Bob Carriere]

I sure hope he is not selling the CMP one part at a time....!!!!!

I paid $80 US from a vendor at the MVPA convention, he had 6 or 7.

Since I have the metal part from a truck that had the wood fail, I plan to make a new rim. At the difference between what the hub cost me and the ebay cost, I can afford to put in something over 200 hours building the new rim at my post-tax pay rate.
The price might reflect what the seller has in the parts, might represent a bargain to someone who has an otherwise complete truck and can't drive it without a steering wheel or might just be out of the question to someone like me with time rather than money (and I also have a wood steering wheel in good condition to model the replacement rim on (as well as some of the rim fragments that came with the hub)).

There is a great article on one of the more US websites showing a guy rebuilding one, nice work and good instructions.I'll try to find the link.

Have to click on links for the accompanying pictures but worth the scan.

Thanks for letting me know there was an article to search for, is this it?

If there are others, please let me know and then perhaps we can either link to this or create a post in the restoration forum.

On edit: Oops, you got there first Harry. Thanks, other sites will still be appreciated if you have them.

As far as I am aware the CMP steering wheel is 18" outside diameter whilst the CCKW is 20" yet the way the advertisement puts it they are all the same. Yes, they do interchange but the diameter determines which vehicle it is correct for.

For most North American males the 18" wheel would be more desirable (belly clearance).
