Steering wheel repair
« on: January 18, 2010, 17:09:18 »
The steering wheel on my 1968 250SL has a relatively large crack near the horn bar.  Is there a way to repair this and still make it look good?
Thanks,

Look at last issue of Pagoda World, issue 11 September 2009, page 18.  Great story by Phil Auldridge on Steering Wheel Restoration.

Use the Search feature on wheel reair.  You'll find several posts on that may help.
