Does anyone know where I can get an adapter to mount a Nardi steering wheel in my 76 Avanti II? I *think* it has the Chrysler column but I'm not positive. Any pointers are appreciated.

Thanks!

What type of wheel is on your 76 now? My 76 came with a Momo, I think. It is a wood wheel with 3 flat aluminum spokes with the Avanti horn button. The mounting plate for the wheel has 6 metric screws securing the wheel to the hub.

Maybe these links would be of some help:

Your 76 has an AMC/GM steering column and you have a Jeep steering wheel. AMC purchased their columns from GM. The interesting part is that the column will accommodate a Chrysler/Mopar or a GM ignition switch. I would buy a GM adapter for your Nardi.AMC used GM keys but I guess Avanti used the Mopar key because it matched the Avanti door locks. BUT.... I had a '74 that had the same Mopar column and GM key for the ignition that also fit the door locks. Go Figure.

BTW, Looks like a nice car from your interior shot.
