Bob,

Give Gary a call or drop him an e-mail, he may be able to help or know someone who can. He does great work restoring steering wheels.

You can do it yourself.  Ford had rim blow wheels in 69-71 and they reproduce the contact ring for these wheels which is practically the same.  Just need to take a measurement of the length around the inside of the wheel as there a couple of different lengths reproduced (mainly for 14" and 15" wheels).  I believe '69 would use a 43-44" rim blow contact ring switch.
