My 2 cents.....
I dig the Impala wheels and always have but......
I also dig the gold metal flake.
I know. I know. That was of no help...[ddd
Will the diameter of the wheel be an issue for comfort as the older wheels tended to be larger.

The diameter is a concern. The gold metal flake wheel is a 14" which is one inch larger than most of those are.
The Impala wheel is winning out, like I kinda knew it would.
The GMC wheel is neat because it's a GMC

I tend to like the bigger original steering wheels myself OI as I think that is what helps give the dash/interior of these old wrecks their character but growing up when I did those Metal flake wheels were always a big deal as well. It seemed to be a touch of "California Cool" to a kid from the heart of the rust belt.

I had a golden day Friday.
We couldn't find the vin tag for the 37 anywhere and while installing the floorboards, there was an unassuming piece of electrical tape wrapped around the door brace that had been bothering me, as I pulled the tape off, to my utter amazement, the vin tag was being held on the back side of the brace with it
[clYeeeee Hawwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Since I'm comfortable with my manhood I can tell this, when I showed it to Peabody he grab me and gave me a big hug
