I see them on Ebay & FB Marketplace from time to time in various conditions.
Same as the Plymouth wheel & ring, just the emblem differs.
Not sure who's doing restored wheels these days, IIRC there are a couple members here that do that.
Or you can whip out the 2-part epoxy...

customer we did his 69 bee a number of years ago looking for the correct style wheel for his car. This was his car before and after we did the body and paint. So no luck fixing this one to make it like the other one. smile

Corey, the black wheel is the "poverty model" laugh2
Won't work with the horn ring, of course.
The tan wheel is more common, I believe, being Satellite & Coronet 440 (I think), and on up the "food chain".

while the base Road Runner used the "poverty" steering wheel the one the OP is looking for was STANDARD in Charger, GTX, Super Bee, 500, R/T & others

the above Bee must've been a clone? stainless B-pillar mouldings were STANDARD on a Bee also ....

PG Classics & others sell a reproduction of the wheel you are looking for (in 5 colors) ..... not sure if the horn pad is available new, but there are plenty used out there

No experience with that wheel but it looks the part.
I'm sure someone here has bought one.
I don't think anyone is reproducing the horn ring & pad; gotta go used on that.
One's on Ebay, but $250 ! I would think they're worth less, but never had to look for one.
Saw a site for CTC Auto Ranch in TX - 940-482-3007 on Google.

I purchased a "tan" '69 wheel & a "black" '70 steering wheel & would purchase another - I have a couple horn pads/rings if you need one

Not trying to get off subject here but I was wondering. What is the difference between a 69 and a 70 wheel.I see PG lists them separately.I always thought they were the same.

1970 Steering wheels are textured.

On original steering wheels the back side centers have different patterns cast in them depending on what mold was used.

69 wheel is smooth finish. 70 wheel is pebble grain textured and also has a larger center area to accommodate the 70 steering column with ignition key. 69-70 steering wheels or horn centers do not interchange.
