Welcome from Houston, Texas...man you have a couple of gorgeous trucks!
Neat to see a square with the old school Comfort Grip three spoke steering wheel; Dad had those on most of our square body Burbs. He liked the factory 4 spoke on the '90 so it stayed stock.

3 spoke comfort grip is my favorite. Have one on my 68 camaro and the 87 2wd shortbox. I didnt realize they made these in colors so teh blue matches the interior pretty well on the 79 K10. I get a lot of compliments for the wheel! I know the factory 4 spoke you are referring too...had a 90 454SS and always liked those wheels as well.

Originally in their Camaro and Corvette usage the Comfort Grip three spoke steering wheel was black, then in the later usages they started to have colors. Blue(in a few different shades), red, tan and gray. We used to find them in the local yards, 20-30 years ago when the cars they were in, were getting scrapped.
