Title: Moon Steering Wheel
Post by: coral57 on 2010-09-23 09:37
I'm wanting to use a white Moon steering wheel on my coral/white custom 300. Buying the wheel is obviously not a problem, but they do not list an adapter kit for a 57 car. They do list a kit for a 57 Bird and a 57 Mercury. Will the Bird or Mercury kit work on my car?
Thanks in advance!

I HAVE AN OLD GRANT STEERING WHEEL ADAPTER, AND THIS LISTED THE FAIRLANE AND T-BIRD AS THE SAME. HOPE THIS HELPS TOM ( ALSO WE KNOW A T-BIRD STEERING WHEEL WILL FIT A PASSANGER CAR, SO YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE A PROBLEM)

This may be to late to be of help but all the steering wheel adapters omit 57's because of the center shaft wire for the horn. if you swap out the turn signal bracket and plate for a 58 or 59 most of the kits will work. Its that darn horn wire that comes right up threw the shaft that makes all the problems for a cool wheel install. Dave
