    Got a 34 Plymouth with original steering wheel and column. I need a smaller diameter steering wheel than the 17" original. Something around 15" would be perfect. What are my options? Anyone make vintage looking wheel that will fit the original column? Thanks,

    One option would be to weld a smaller ring from another steering wheel. Then epoxy the weld area and blend it back in.

    You have several options: First, as Anthony said, you alter the steering wheel which can be done by cutting off the current 17" ring and attaching a smaller ring in its place. Second, you take a newer 15" wheel and cut out the center spline, remove the attachment sleeve from the stock wheel along with the key and put them in the 15" wheel. Third, you swap out your steering column for one that takes a newer 15" wheel.

    I don't know of anyone or after market source for a 15 that simply bolts onto the stock column.
