Default Re: 68 Chevelle/Nova Steering Wheel

To be honest, I didn't see the article you mentioned. I decided it would be a good fix because I used it on my boat repair and it held up to the sun very well without changing shape or cracking. I am in Phoenix on business right now, so don't know the brand of paint off hand. I do know that it was the same stuff I used on my console, think it was the flexible vinyl paint with the correct medium blue color. I think I got it from either Year One or Classic Ind. The car is still being redone, so it doesn't see the light of day yet, so maybe I was speaking out of turn. It does look pretty good, but I am not planning to try and get 1,000 points either. Just seemed to me a better way to try and fix mine so I could use the real money on more critical resto projects. The couple others I sold seem to be doing alright, but again those cars are garaged most of the time. The hardest part from my perspective was the trying to get the ribs on it right, I actually used a feeler gauge to measure the ribs and made the few that were effected by the repair with that. It was the best way I could think of to get the right spacing. The one I redid had the Impala crest (or whatever it is called), did we ever come to a conclusion on what a June Camaro would have had....SS or SS396?
