[SCG] Length of turn signal shaft with wood wheel option

[Kent Sullivan]

Tom,

I have not kept up on these details. But Clark's catalog on page 88 has a
pretty clear description I think... The telescoping column definitely used a
different knob. I am not sure about the wood wheel in the non-telescoping
application. I bet others on the SCG list will know, however.

Kent:

I am currently rebuilding by steering column for my 66 turbo convertible.  I
am switching from the stock turquoise wheel (which I might add is severely
weathered and cracked) to the non-telescoping wool wheel option.  I have
heard, and believe, there is a different length turn signal shaft used with
this wood wheel (and possibly telescoping wood wheel also) option from the
shaft with the stock steering wheel.  I cannot find anything relating to
this in Larry Claypool's "Stock Is" in the June 1990 Communique where he
discusses steering wheels in depth.  Currently, I have 3 turn signal shafts
with the lengths of 6 1/2", 7" and 7 1/2" - all with the same black stock
tip.  Your  assistance in this matter is appreciated.
