hey guys
I'm wondering what the rare, must have steering wheel is for a '70 SuperBee

I know that the '69 B-Body wheel is the 3 spoke wood, and the '71 'Cuda wheel is the wooden rim blow

But every time I search for a '70 Coronet, all I get is info on the '68-69

thanks

Same as the '68-'69 except in '70 Chrysler used a thin plastic collar on the backside of the wheel. If you can find a rally wheel the collar can be added easily enough.

70 wood grain steering wheel. There is a photo of one in my photo garage. Classic industries sells a repop but I’ve heard bad things about them. Tonys parts had some for around $800 but there probably gone by now. I paid a lot more than that for mine. Not proud of it, just couldn’t find a nice one for less. Reconditioned ones don’t look like they did when new, hard to copy the wood grain. Mine actually came from a high school driving simulator.
Good luck.

I believe that's correct. There is an "adapter" on the 70 wheel + a special horn button mount (& horn button), which are all unique to the woodgrain wheel. In '70 the column is a larger diameter since the key is inside the column (68-69 is on the dash). fyi- my '70 is original woodgrain. The steering wheels alone can run $1000+
