C2 Chevrolet Corvette Steering Wheel

C2 Corvette Steering Wheel

Classic car collectors are always on the hunt for second-generation Corvettes. These rare models were only available from 1963 to 1967, making them the shortest-running Corvette series thus far. 

C2 Corvettes achieved instant popularity with their distinct style and powerful performance. The C2 body design was vastly different from previous C1 models, with an elongated nose, shortened tail, pop-up headlights and signature chrome accents. Select C2 models also reached over 250 horsepower for a thrilling driving experience. These characteristics make C2 Corvettes some of the most sought-after classic cars on the market today.

If you’re fortunate enough to have one of these limited releases in your garage, it’s crucial to maintain its condition. Top Flight Automotive has an extensive selection of Corvette parts for sale at great prices, including C2 steering wheels. We have options for every C2 model year, including 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966 and 1967 steering wheel components.

About C2 Corvette Steering Wheels

C2 Corvette models saw several changes to steering wheel styling. While the previous C1 series had circular cutouts within the steering wheel’s tri-spoke design, the C2 steering wheel featured elongated cutouts. C2 Corvette steering wheels also had several wood finishes, including genuine teak and simulated woodgrain styles. 

Importance of C2 Steering Wheels

Your steering wheel is a distinctive feature of your C2 Corvette. Keeping it in good condition contributes to the look of your cabin and your car’s overall resale value. The steering wheel is also one of your car’s most important functional components. It serves as a direct link between you and your vehicle, converting rotational movement to your car’s front wheels to control direction. 

When to Replace Your C2 Steering Wheel

Now that C2 Corvettes are more than 50 years old, it may be time to replace your steering wheel with a reproduction. Steering wheels are often one of the first interior components to show their age. Over time, they become worn or damaged from regular use, oils on your skin and sun exposure. You can replace your steering wheel with a reproduction when it looks tattered to maximize your vehicle’s value and appeal.

Consider swapping out your factory steering wheel for a reproduction from Top Flight Automotive for the best handling experience, too. We carry C2 steering wheel components that ensure an excellent feel and preserve the functionality of your car.

C2 Corvette Reproduction Steering Wheels

At Top Flight Automotive, we sell C2 Corvette steering wheels that look and feel just like those that came out of the Chevrolet factory between 1963 and 1966. Our reproduction steering wheels have the same dimensions as factory originals, ensuring a perfect fit with your C2. They come in a beautiful walnut color for an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) look and are easy to install, with no interior modifications required. 

Eliminate the time-consuming search for a quality used C2 steering wheel when you shop at Top Flight Automotive. You’ll find drop-in solutions that erase fading and stains for a factory-fresh look.

C2 Steering Wheel Components

Besides C2 steering wheels, our extensive inventory includes many other parts you may need for your restoration project. You’ll find reproduction steering wheel hubs compatible with every C2 model year. These hubs are engineered to original factory specifications for a precise fit. We also have steering wheel hubs for applications with or without telescopic steering wheel columns to best suit your needs.

When installing a new steering wheel, you’ll need a hub adapter to ensure it mounts properly. At Top Flight Automotive, we carry adapters that fit the tapered, splined top shaft of a General Motors (GM) steering wheel column. These adapters come with a horn wire and mounting hardware for a streamlined installation process. They are available in a black powder coat or chrome finish.

If you’re looking for hardware, you can also shop for sets of mounting screws compatible with your C2 steering wheel setup.

Why Update Your C2 Corvette Steering Wheel Horn?

Your steering wheel horn is an essential safety component of your vehicle. With each press, the horn produces sounds to alert other drivers to your presence or call attention to a road hazard. When your horn isn’t working properly, you may be more vulnerable to traffic accidents. Consider replacing your steering wheel horn components if you experience any of the following problems:

  • There is no sound when you press the horn button.
  • Your horn button gets stuck frequently.
  • Your horn goes off randomly on its own.
  • Your stock horn assembly is highly sensitive.

C2 Steering Wheel Horn Parts From Top Flight Automotive

Top Flight Automotive has C2 horn components you may need to restore your horn’s functionality. If your horn has suddenly stopped working, it could mean there’s an issue with the horn contact membrane. The contact membrane is responsible for triggering sound when you press the horn button. We sell new components you can easily swap with your factory contact.

Consider purchasing one of our repair kits to fix your malfunctioning horn. The kit includes shims, screws and spacers to provide everything you need to get your horn working correctly. We also sell contact screws, springs, rivets, shims and other hardware pieces in sets to meet all your needs.

If your steering wheel button is cracked or loose, add one of our reproduction horn button assemblies to your order. You can choose from C2 horn buttons with the Corvette Crossflag logo or the Chevy chevron emblem to add the perfect decorative detail to your steering wheel.
