Steering wheel removal is simple, follow your nose.
 
1.  remove the black surround.  two small screws on each  end
    and another middle.
2.  Loosen adjuster and lower wheel about half way.
3.  Reomve the center motif.  Pry very gently under the  outside
    of the chrome.
4.  Remove the nut and washer.
5.  Remove the black adjuster ring.
6.  Remove the horn ring and its mounting screws.   Unhook
    the power lead to the horn ring the goes through the  steering
    wheel.
7. grab the steering wheel and pull upwards while jiggling.
    don't let the adjusting shaft go down into the  column.  You
    should have a split nylon washer about 1/8 in thick  that
    prevents that.
 
Now would be a great time to send your entire steering column
to the lister in WA state for rebuilding.  I'm told it makes a
world of difference.

I've got  a factory wheel in original very good condition
but the varnish is darkened  and starting to crack. I want to
replace it with the cheapest possible $29  Pep Boys wheel
while I refinish it. How do I remove the factory wheel and  am I going
to need any adaptor to put a Pep Boys Grant's brand wheel on  ?

Any non Pep Boys suggestions that are cheap are also  welcome.

Thanks

Steve
