    Need a photo of 67(believe 68 to be the same) deluxe steering wheel showing the configuration where it attaches to column. This is for a 67 GS. This is wheel with two spokes at approximately 3 and 9 o'clock and horn pad(rectangualar) going down to 6 o'clock. Getting ready to restore wheel but haven't pulled old wheel and want to make sure they are same before I begin. Car going to be painted today and can't pull present steering wheel. Two shots-one from top and other from bottom would be perfect. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Thanks

    Not clear on what you need a pic of. I have a 67-8 Deluxe wheel in the garage I can take pics of if you can clarify what you need.
    For what it's worth, if you are just worried if they are interchangable, if they are the same design they are interchangable.

    Yes I was worried about being interchangeable. I wanted photos of hub portion of steering wheel so I could compare to the new one I'm going to restore and make sure it would fit on steering column. Wanted two photos-one from top of wheel showing hub and one from underneath showing hub. Really appreciate your help. Thanks

    The only difference between the two ('67/'68) should be the horn button. On '68 wheels the button trim had a "matte" finish chrome and more of a chrome finish in '67. The duller finish on the '68 was due to "anti glare" safety regulations that were put in place I believe.
