Default Steering wheel question

What is the correct steering wheel for a 79 W150 Macho Power Wagon? I have a black, three spoke one but two of the spokes are cracked at the centre and I want to replace it. If anyone has one for sale let me know. Not interested in an aftermarket one.

Depends on what it left the factory with. Mine actually had a GM tilt column in it. I found out years latter that Chrysler actually bought tilt column's from GM to install. Well no GM stuff is going to be in my ride so out it went and swapped it for a standard column. I would opt for the "tuff wheel" that was a factory option. Originals can be pricey in good condition but there are reproductions that are real close to the originals.

I've had a couple and they had the "Tuff" wheel. Three flat spokes and a pleated cover going down to the column.
