I seriously doubt there is a problem with the steering wheel.
I've this problem is usually worn-missing bushings in the steering linkage, bad
ball joints or outer tie rod ends. The most suspect would be older bias ply
tires .

Bill, Are you sure that the steering wheel is doing this all by
itself? I have driven Imperials from this era that had worn out front
suspensions and this is how they acted. Once the suspension was rebuilt, the
wheel didn't wobble.
