My 71 Demon tracks straight,no tire wear,but the wheel is at an 11:00 o' clock position. What's wrong?
 
It needs to have the toe set with the wheel straight, or the steering wheel needs reclocking. Someone may have had it off at one point.
 
I'd have all 3 angles checked (complete 4 wheel alignment), but toe is the angle that will cause the steering to move off-center. Always insist on a true 4 wheel alignment even though there is no adjustment on the rear axle. If the rear isn't positioned perfectly perpendicular to the vehicles centerline it will affect the front ends alignment since the front end toe is calculated off the rear wheels track. A 4 wheel alignment will take into effect the rear axle's position & compensate from that. Alignment should be adjusted in this order: Caster, Camber & lastly Toe.

Thanks for the replies. I looked at the steering wheel and there is only one way it goes onto the column,one keyway on the shaft and on the wheel. I guess its time for an alignment.
