The '76 Corvette shared the same steering wheel as the Vega for that year only. I e-mailed Grant at one time and they do not make anything for the 1976 Corvette.

Thanks Aaron,
Good info. I also found in that post, where you can just replace parts and get the same. I think I will check into gettings the parts. May be a easy deal. That is if I can find all the parts! LOL

What year model columns will fit in a 76? I found a 78 but not sure if it will fit.

I checked with our steering column expert.  All 69 to 82 will bolt in.... BUT..  77 had a wiper switch in it so should be avoided.  Only 76 and newer had a dimmer switch in the column.  Earlier ones had it on the floor.  So a 78 to 82 is your easiest option.  They are available for about $150.00 or so, plus about $300 to rebuild, if needed.

Good Luck
Larry
