Looking at a Capri RS wheel....but not sure what the value is on these. I cant find crap!
I have a "whats it worth" question...
Looking at a Capri RS wheel....but not sure what the value is on these. I cant find crap!
1980 Cobra - bone stock
1982 GT - Under construction
1984 SVO - "Outlaw" Edition (not sure what that means, yet)
1986 GT - 302/T5, mostly original, 55,000 original miles
1990 Bronco - 357/AOD/GT40 converted/MAF converted/SEFI converted, long travel suspension to be installed soon
at least 100.00
That's cool I've never seen a Capri one, only a Mustang one. Tony would know what they are worth. I think $100 is respectable, especially if it's in that good of shape!
it be a cool peice to hang on the wall

My '84 had that wheel. I've seen early Escort GTs with that wheel too.
That one looks to be in very nice condition. I think that they're prone to UV rays and the elements, because I've seen the vinyl around the rim crack and disintegrate.

Looks just like an SVO steering wheel to me. Only with a Mercury emblem in the center other than a Ford oval.
There is a market. No less than $100 and I bet it could go much higher.
01 F250 Lariat SC 4x4 and it's paid for. Still loving the V10
It looks like the SVO wheel, but it's slightly different. The SVO has a metal tubular frame for the horn pad to clip on to and it has real leather used throughout (wheel and horn pad both). This is the non-cruise GT wheel and it doesn't have the metal tubes inside (I'm not sure how to describe the material the horn pad clips to, but it's chunky) for the horn pad and its synthetic (made to appear leather and stitched, but it's not). The SVO wheel is much nicer.Originally Posted by boss82gt

Price all depends on condition, the one you posted is the photo from Negusm's website and is NOS.
Many don't have the black cat still visible from wear as well. If you post an actual photo, it might help more.
As NOS wheel as you posted about could fetch $200-300 where as a used wheel get go for $75 to 150.
The RS wheel is the exact same Faux leather the GT uses, just a different center piece on the horn pad for Mercury or FORD
Back when I had my 85 I really wanted one of the OE non-cruise wheels when I first got the car. I must have bid on 5-6 different ones on ebay and had I been willing to go above $150 I would have got one. But I wasn't and they all went for $150 or more. That was in 2006.
