Dang!! You could put that steering wheel on a Greyhound bus, LOL.

Yeah, steering wheels were pretty big, back in the 50s and 60s. They're what I learned to drive in.

Us young guys would swap 'em out with after market steering wheels that were much smaller.

Yup, remember the big steering wheels, couldn't believe the first car I drove with power steering, it was like freaking magic.
Started out with my grandfather's old Ford truck, had a dump bed and a flat bed, you needed all the leverage you could get to steer that thing on the farm.

You needed the leverage to turn without power steering....
