Matt Harwood Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Are you looking for a '40 or a '41? They're different. They are plentiful, but nice ones are expensive--maybe $900-1100. Cores are cheap, but they need $900-1100 to be nice again. They show up on eBay quite often. Unfortunately, the original plastic just didn't weather the years very well. Exposure to the sun and ozone accelerates the deterioration but I have an NOS wheel that's still wrapped in wax paper in a box and even it is a bit chalky. If you want a nice one, a restored wheel is the only way to go. I had the wheel in my '41 Limited restored shortly after I bought the car and I'm very satisfied. It was expensive, but the steering wheel is your primary interface with the car and it should be a pleasant experience. It makes a real difference.

Thomas J. Bianculli Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I used Koch's, www.kochssteeringwheels.com Tel: (661) 268-1341Fax: (661) 268-7011Email: customerservice@kochs.com They were very easy to deal with and asked me to send my horn ring plastic so they could match the color. Mine was done in 2013, and the check in my records is $429.00. Maybe more now but call and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly_John Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) Hi, Starting the Dream. I just sent you a PM (the little white envelope at the top of the page) about a 1940 Buick steering wheel I have available.
