These corvette sbc mounts are backwards from the camaro/S10 motor mounts I've dealt with in the past. On this thing the rubber part mounts to the motor side. Others had the rubber frame side.

$12.99 each from autozone. Same style as these.

 

I want the steering wheel. I have found similar for $2600.00. I don't like it that much.
I agree with the dash, too tall and narrow.

 

Is that a Nardi wheel of something more special?

 

Not sure on the one in the pic above, the one I found was old stock Nardi some guy bought up in a warehouse.

 

I've got one in my stash somewhere that was on a $300 70's jag that I bought for the suspension clips. I think the adapters are the only parts that are model specific. The one I have didn't really impress me.

I would rather have a 60's corvette looking wheel.

 

I don't remember if I posted this wheel or not. It is out of a 1952 Mercedes 220. The cool thing about it is the turn signal switch....it is the "horn ring" (note the way it moves left and right).

I would need to build a collapsible steering column to use it in a daily driver.

I think I'm going to mock it up in the car for fun.

It doesn't really go with the racecar/corvette shit vibe, but it would be fun to look at while driving.

 

Some early SL's have to rotating trim ring, some don't. Some have a turn signal on the column. Some have both.

I always assumed the 3 position switch was for turn signals.

I don't know anyone with a gullwing era car an neither of the 220's that I bought were functional cars....both were hot rod project cars.

I don't know if these pictures are from original car, reproductions,or what.

 

I think some 50's cues would be a good thing. I won't ever get to enjoy a gullwing. This car will have to do.

⁸I'm guessing the early cars have the speedometer and Tach close together. ...like this.

Versus having the multi-function gauge in the middle. ...like this.

It might just be a difference in trim levels. I never had a reason to research it. ....still don't, I'm not doing a restoration. 😀
