Description:
This one year only, three spoke wheel was used on all Cougars in 1969 except the Cougars equipped with standard interior. The standard interior Cougars used the solid colored two spoke wheel. The un-restored XR7 pad and bezel shown are not included with the wheel, they are sold separately. As we prefer to start with a very nice core wheel, a good core wheel is required in exchange or a core charge will apply. We choose to only send in wheels that are not separating or have large cracks as the end result looks superior and holds up better to the test of time.Same basic steering wheel was used on lots of various 1969 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury cars.
This is a Restoration Service, 1969 Rim Blow Exchange Only - Please call 503-463-1130 if you do not have a core 1969 steering wheel to send.
*NOTE* When sending your wheel in for restoration please scribe your name in the exposed metal area under the steering wheel pad. It can take as long as three months before you get your wheel back. The wheel we are offering here is a black wheel. If you want a color other than black you will have to call us for availability or supply your core in advance.
