Need Grant (Giant) metalflake steering wheel

Post by Michael Burke » Sat May 26, 2012 2:40 am

Hi Guys,

I need a red metalflake Grant steering wheel to finish a project. If you have to one to sell, trade or know of one, please send me a PM or email. It's the last part I need for this Hartman/Caretta sprint project. I have a blue metalflake Covico in usable condition I can trade for the Grant wheel. I know this is a rear engine oriented site, but this group seems to know where everything is. :D

Thanks
Michael

Speedway Motors sells new ones. I'm not sure of the colors or if the style you are looking for.

I think the bradn name is Bell & they are ski boat steering wheels. Pretty close to the old ones.

Unfortunately no one is producing this steering wheel. The Azusa steering wheel is closer in appearance than any currently available part, but I want to use the correct one. I'm willing to put off the completion of this project until I can obtain the Grant steering wheel even though I know it would drive just as well with a substitute part.

Thanks for the ideas

Michael

I thought I had what you were looking for, but mine is blue metalflake. I have been told it is a desirable steering wheel. It looks like the Azuza but appears to be a little deeper and has the actual three long slots. Mine has a small drill hole.
