I probably have 8 hours or more invested in it but what else does a guy do in the middle of winter |
Now that is the way the wheel should look. I never liked the rivet holes. If it would have looked like yours I would have bought one. I bet you could sell a few like that.
I like what you did with the horn button. Is that just a stock horn button with fender emblem glued on?
On a side note. I see that one of the steering wheel restorers added woodgrain detail with a black sharpie. Just a thought if a person wanted to resemble more of the factory wood wheel.
Awesome work!
