Restoring 380mm steering wheel

Post by matteo68 »

I have a 380mm wheel (914.347.804.10) which is need of restoration and correct thick covered rim with cotton underlayer for my ST build.

Who should I take it to? Recommendations please!

Matt, you could beg Jonathan Parr of this parish. He restored mine. You have time on your side too...!

And now he’s finished restoring that British Leyland he’ll have plenty of time on his hands.

Thanks stretch! What’s his username and I’ll send him a PM and mention your name!

Seem to be collecting bits and pieces already - but hopefully getting it right first time!
