So I know most everyone here says a 15" steering wheel with a stock box is no good. I have to disagree. Drives great and I really cant tell the difference. Seems fine. I'm sure parking might take a little more effort, but turning into garages seems the same. On the road bump steer in not there, even though it was ok before.
I wanted the original look because of the horn button. A friend has an extra 53 wheel so I could save mine in case. Here's how it looks...

It would definitely be the bee's knees for a power steering rig.

It's all in your mind. The shorter the lever arm, the more torque must be applied. However, a very job, you did nice, said Yoda.

Bee's knees? Ah, those good old roaring twenties.
