Very nice wheel! Steering wheels are so hard to find in good shape.

Well I have changed my Steering Wheel Assembly once again, the Original Steering Wheel as well as the last 2 that I have put on I sold on eBay.

This one I got Custom Made from a Company on-line called CON2R. I used a Polished Hub with a 2" Polished Spacer.

I also put in a Bench Seat Console.

I put on a new Polished Aluminum Flat Top Air Cleaner Lid. The Chrome Domed one that I had on there was touching the bottom of the hood.

Lucky find, I have not had any luck on red ones, were they crazy expensive?

I painted all of my Stock Wheels Satin Black and put a set of correct NOS 1963 Oldsmobile F-85 - Cutlass and Jetfire Poverty / Dog Dish Hubcaps on it without any Trim Rings / Beauty Bands.

I have debated if I should black out the white walls or not. Please let me know your thoughts...
