That little bit at the end is very relatable - keep grinding on this project, so much progress has been made and you're getting so close to hearing that sound for real again!
It’s actually something you won’t think about until it’s done. And yea it’s true in most any vehicle. My 70 mustang got a smaller wheel by one inch and it kept me from seeing the speedometer as well as fuel gauge. Not only size can be a factor, the depth or offset can also pose a problem with getting in and out of car. Not so much with a tilt tel but with standard columns that are fixed.The different size wheel offset also can affect the blinker arm and it could end up being too close or far away. Again the corvettes that have only power assists seems would make it a bit more troublesome to turn. I put a Borgeson full power on line but I like the steering wheel 🛞n my 81 so well the bought an exact reproduction. Thanks again. Good-good-good.
My biggest consideration for a smaller steering wheel was the fact that in a crash the first thing to make contact with the steering wheel would be my nuts.

Mark drops a new video, Patrick watches a new video. Love these corvette videos!
Excellent, thank you

I got a 73 convertible, the only issue with original steering wheel is can get sticky sometimes
You could swap the gauges for ones that also show the speed and rpm digitally. Not a cheap fix, though.
Couldn’t you tilt/move to wheel
To position it more comfortably to see the gauges?
