One of Shrock Brothers’ most sought-after specialties was the expert remanufacturing of original Studebaker steering wheels. The brothers restored worn, cracked, and damaged steering wheels to like-new condition, casting new material onto the owner’s original core.

The catalog included horn buttons, horn emblems, and complete steering wheels for Studebaker models from 1931 through the 1960s, as well as selected wheels for other makes including Chevrolet. Most wheels were cast onto the customer’s original core to preserve authenticity.

Parts are no longer available for purchase. The business closed in 2021. Prices shown are historical.
