A friend stopped by today with a steering wheel that has a SS427 emblem on it. The wheel is a 3 spoke from a 68 Impala? He would like to know what it is worth. Its in pretty good shape, from what I saw. Thanks.

If it has no cracks, or deep scratches and the horn section is in good shape it is worth between $400.00 and $700.00... A nice restored 68 wheel can be worth as much as $700.00... Most of the 68 wheels cracked over the years, so a crack free, original, unrestored wheel is fairly rare.

The emblem alone would probably sell for $150 to $200. The last SS396 emblem on Ebay sold for $135. As Bill said, uncracked 1968 wheels are hard to find.

The wheel is came in most 68 Chevys like Impalas, Chevelles, Novas, and Camaros. It did not come in base cars like Chevelle 300, Bel Air, or Biscayne.

Here is a 1968 shroud on Ebay with the SS427 emblem on it. It should sell for $150 or more.
