69 Camaro Cushion Grip sterring wheel

[Don_Lightfoot]

The current "for sale" ad in the classifieds got me thinking about this. I didn't know this wheel was so rare.

Back in 1995 I bought a 69 RS/SS 4-speed 350 Camaro and did a full restoration on it. Although the car was well worn, it had most of its original pieces including engine, transmission, rear end, smog manifolds, etc. Only documentation with the car was the POP. I believe it was a spring 69 build from Norwood.

It had a cushion grip wheel in it (I thought would have been original) which I replaced with a Rosewood. The cushion wheel got sold for a song.

My question is - With a Red standard interior would the cushion grip wheel have alse been Red as that was the colour of the one in the car? Thanks, just trying to expand my knowledge.
