I recently picked up a Jeep sport wheel, green leather color. Had the horn button with a cracked Jeep logo and the back spacer was in pieces. A little glue for the spacer, some Krylon "Equestrian" spray paint (almost a perfect match to my 74 Hornet interior saddle brown); and amazingly enough, I used a Hornet hood emblem in place of the Jeep logo and it fit perfect. Had no problems with the splines lining up on the streering shaft, maybe just a funky wire route because there is a difference on the bar wheel where the wire comes through for the horn connection. Looks awesome but have yet to take a picture of it in the car and put
it on my cardomain.com site.
Anyway, go to EBAY now, search AMC steering wheels, they have a Jeep sport wheel like the one I got on right now, ends in 15 hours, $26 now with $7 shipping. Doesn't say if it has the spacer but it has the horn button. Good luck.

Ok whose got a three spoke "X" style steering wheel with all the horn parts and the plastic adapter for sale? Color is unimportant and also if the plastic adapter is broken and you have all the parts that is ok too. The plastic adapter was broken on both wheels I got for my Hornets years ago and were repaired and have been fine for over 6 years now. I hate them 2 spoke wheels. HELP!!!!!! E-Mail me at amc74hornet@ webtv.net Thanks
