You should know that in some states these are illegal to use unless you are handicapped and unable to use your legs. A friend just got a $75 ticket last week for having one installed in his truck. Just an FYI.

-S/6

I never got why those are illegal in some states, though I don't care much. My steering is so light if I REALLY wanted to I could do the same effect with my fingertip(not that I'm saying that would be the intelligent thing to do...)

Memory Flood! My late brother not only had a "Necker Knob" but also the "Shrunken Head" in my mother's new '55 Plymouth 2 door hardtop (but only on dates and weekends)

My dad owned a Texaco Station when i was growing up he owned it for 35 years. So all yall Slanters know where i went bad. He sold them Knobs at the service station, but every once in a while he would pull one out of a box and would not let me see it. Latter i found out why it had a very pretty lady on it with no cloths on, so i guess that is why they are outlawed now. Ps my first car 59 Chevy Impala 283 Power Pak i converted to MOPAR latter , But at 16 you could get a date in my town if you had wheels. Aint it cool Thanks Ron Parker

The reason steering wheel spinners are illegal is because in an emergency, when both hands are needed to effectively control the car, a spinner will entangle your fingers and make controlling the car difficult.

Spinners were originally designed to fit over the steering wheels of forklifts and other industrial/construction equipment in situations where the right hand was needed to operate hydraulic levers. It was less commonly used on vehicles with manual transmissions. For quick, precise steering at high speeds, however, spinners are not recommended even for these.

IT'S ALL GOOD

Hey I like 'em. I had one on a '47 Dodge car to help with the "girl friend" issue when I was driving down the road. I later put one on a '54 Chev for the same reason and got a ticket for "Driving while in the embrace of another." Heh, heh, they should have seen us sooner. Love the knob. RMDV.

Hi RMDV,

I've not heard of that law. From the 60's? As for seeing you earlier, I only know of one thing that can be done while driving, don't elaborate, but is there really more?

By the way, what kinda 54 Chev did you have? I gotta radical period correct chop top 210 series.

Does rmDV stand for Disabled Veteran? Hope I'm not being nosey. I am one.

That was/is a law that was enforced in Oregon and maybe still is, but it is kind of like the old "basic rule" concept where the driver is supposed to operate a vehicle is such a manner he has complete control at all times. Actually it was in a rural area and I don't think that state cop had much to do. The ticket cost me $10.00 plus $5.00 court costs AND I had to go find the Justice of the Peace in his horse correl to pay the fine. As to what was going on before.....well, ...

RMDV stands for Real Men Drive Valiants; now I hasten to add that is not intended to slight other "A" body drivers/oweners, but I happen to have two 63 Valiants. And as I'm sure that anyone who own one of the older "A" bodies well knows, when I talk about the car other people tend to ask, "Why bother with that!" RMDV is a daily driver and has been in the family since new, the other one is in the restoretion process and when finished, its license plate will read "WHY NOT" in answer to the frequently asked questions.

I rather fancied the 63 valiant. We had one on our property in Ohio for years, automatic, console, floor shift, buckets. Not a bad car really if you didn't mind the draft from the non-existent floor boards. We sold to a guy about ten years ago that was tickled stupid to get it. Had we known then.....

The plate idea is very . I have an asphalt burning lime green 72 Pontiac LeMans that says "CLROMNY, COLOR OF MONEY! My 54 Chev plate says "SLTFLT", "SALT FLAT". I was originally going to seriously lower a 66 Pontiac Bonneville with air ride for that plate, but, I've always wanted to do that Chev. It should be done in about 5 or 6 years.
