Installed a Tuff Wheel in my car today what a difference it makes more room and way more comfortable . I should of done this a long time ago I'm trying to keep it as stock as I can but it just not comfortable to drive with the big semi wheel lol.

Not quite as thick and cushy as a modern wheel but close and a dang nice piece for 1970-ish times.
 
Can I spend more of your hard earned cash? Nupar makes custom center caps.... Lots of cool cap designs or something from your imagination...

Many folks selling these. MCB Restorations has one with horn switch for $245.95.

I love your car's color combo.

Good point. I guess what I should have asked is, how is the quality? I have an original Tuff Wheel but it needs restoration. I am sure that it is far more cost effective to purchase a re-pop, but as we all know most of that stuff comes from China and its usually inferior quality to the originals.
 
OUTSTANDING.....
Years ago, I had a '71 Dodge Charger 500, WP23U1A*******, which I ordered new, and optioned with the Tuff steering wheel....a nice interior addition....more leg and knee room.
The link noted previously, lists some of the particulars....to those that re-fitted their ride, what were the difficulties to install it....any adaptors needed? Or is it as simple as remove old install new? My RS23V0A****** did not come with the Tuff wheel, but it may make a nice sddition.

That's not an OEM tuff wheel.

the adapter is totally different

It's a Grant adaptor I was going to buy the real adaptor but I wanted to see how this fit I was pleasantly surprised with how it fit so I'll leave it the way it is. I know it's on OEM but other things on my car are not OEM either.
