Default would a 1970's steering wheel fit?

Got a question for the guru's will a steering wheel from a 70's t/a fit a 98 t/a, if so would it take alot of modifying or would it bolt on. reason i ask is cause those steering wheels aren't exactly cheap so i wanted to know before i take the plunge thanks

i like the 3 spoke look of the older steering wheels,looks better than a fluffy padded air bag, that and the fact that one side of my steering wheels control light is out, and i don't wanna bother with it

I thought very seriously about putting one of these in my car. I think it might look really good.

rampant that is a nice looking piece, that is what i'm looking for just in a black finish...the mark 4 gt lecarra wheel is what i'm looking for, they don't have a price list though.Question what is stopping you from putting it in?

My car is right on the legal fringe of street legal in Canada, and I do not want to give them an additional reason to hassle me. I have heard but not confirmed that they will ticket you for removing safety equipment. I am already worried about my SFI approved racing harnesses. Some cops I have talked too, say they would never hassle me, but they also told me they could.

That is the main reason or I would have it in the car with a different center button with the bird.

I have been looking at getting a factory wheel recovered with the wheel made thicker and done in black leather, so it would be 2 tone with the charcoal and black.

That is not mine in the pic. I saw it for sale and saved the pic because I liked it. For future reference.

Sorry.
