Joe. You said Your wheel has cracks. I have over $4,000.00 in My wheel when I ordered My car and drove it since December 1968. I took it off when it started to crack, and installed a Newer Corvette steering wheel. How in the world did You get over $1,300.00 in Your wheel? Does it need repairing or is it made of Gold? Put pictures on here and let us see it. I will have to ask DonnyB how much it is worth. I am 74 years old and retired and restoring My first Love, "My L72 Impala SS427 Le-mans blue Sport Coupe". I have more than 20 Years as a 1st class Certified Chevrolet Technician and owned a salvage yard. What have You done? I forgot more than You Know. I am working on My cars now. Pictures or shut up. shalerdgsvs@aol.com
