It's even colour-matched.

a soup can is a more lasting repair
car looks quite clean underneath. i really can't see what the difference in the seat back would be. same body, same seat, same well liner , same upper panel etc. maybe multiple manufacturers? it seems like the one with the fold would fit better due to the kick up for the rear axle.

No time last night for the car.
Didn't mention previously, I checked the Super-Light, it works!
The washer bottle looks to be in good shape.

I checked with two different steering wheel restorers and neither have the molds to do this wheel.

Will a standard wheel work on the column?

I'll call them, I think this will fall into the if you must ask you probably can't afford it.

Is that wheel clear or is that an optical illusion?

Clear, not sure how clear it originally was.

These are the only other pictures of this wheel I can find (so far), this one looks tinted with the car. It was standard with the tilt wheel.

Maybe till I find someone to do it.

I might have a line on a very nice one (in black).

The seller came through, these showed up in the mail today. The codes have faded real bad.

I wonder whether putting the build sheets under a "black light" would reveal the codes?

 

[MrMoparCHP]

Surprisingly I was able to figure out all the codes, one interesting code.

Sweet!

That would help explain the options.

What is the dealer code/distribution area?

Is that something on the broadcast sheet?
1969-1988 ?
1988-1993 Washington
1993-2020 Alaska

That is all I know
