I have a '67 / '68 GS Sport Wheel for sale. This is complete with the hub & horn mechanism, wheel and horn button. The rim is cracked and needs to be restored and the horn button has a crack in the center logo. There is also some bubbling in the horn button. I am unsure about the price so let's go $400.00 or best offer ride included.
I thought that the '68 was a standalone on the hub. Is that true? I'll consider it, if it will work on a '68 Skylark.
To my knowledge, the 68 style wheel was 1 yr only in a Buick, but other make 67's & 68's had this wheel available('vette, etc). I can't say if the hub was the same for a 67 application, but a 68 and 69 hub are not the same. Something looks odd about the finish on the wheel. I had an original 68 wheel a couple years ago, and it looked much more like wood-grain than this picture seems to show. Could just be the lighting? o No:
Maybe someone can give a definite clarification on this. My understanding is that the '67 & '68 are the same with the hub spline being different than the '69 and later. The wheel does have a wood type finish. It is discolored from age and the lighting is not very good.
Here's what I have learned: '67 & '68 steering columns are not the same - except where the steering wheel hub mounts. '67 & '68 steering wheel hubs are the same. Also changed the price.
Nice looking wheel. I believe what you have is '68 only. There was no optional steering wheel available from Buick for the 1967 GS 400. All '67 GS 400s had the ugly steering wheel with the large vertical section (rectangle) that served as the horn button. I hope this helps clear up the confusion.
