    O.k., so I'm driving down the road yesterday and my steering wheel cracks in half. Hard enough to find parts for my wagon, now I've got to hunt down a steering wheel. Anyone know where I can find one for a 60 Country Sedan? Or what else might fit it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Country Sedan,as in Ford?
     
  5. Thats what I thought. If its a country sedan like in Ford Counrty Sedan that pretty much any older FOMOCO wheel.

    Basically go to the brand of vehicle it is and start looking.

    Rustrustler - I'd prefer a black... but I'd settle for another one as long as it's in good condition.

    I have a61' f100. And the same happened to me. So I bought a steering wheel @ the swap meet that I liked. Turned out it was a GM wheel? (early 50's I think) So where the GM wheel was keyed, I simply filed another sline into it and it sliped right on.....No ploblems Yet? Not saying this is what you should do. But was my solution to visegrips until I find the wheel that I am searching for(Green flaked, No dish)..
