just thought i`d share this

we`re doing up the old Mk1 steering wheels





what do you guys reckon???

they`ve come up looking brand spanking new

we have a pile of 2nd hand ones here & i figured we`d get some more done-up if there was enough interest???
cheers
Matt

Too glossy.

What are they worth Matt?

Would it include the horn button?

I'd be keen Matt

put me down for 1

the horn buttons are getting very very hard to find, we only have a couple left so we`ll be hanging onto those & using them for our own restos

the cost of Each wheel is dependent upon how much they need refurbed
sooo,,, if the wheel is totally stuffed then it will cost a whole heap more than one that`s just a little worn/cracked

these 2 wheels ended up at $550 each, they were (as best as i can describe) in medium shape

i have about 15 rims left here & i would need some decent money up-front to start
we sell a 2nd hand wheel (needing refurb) for $100 & if i had horn buttons to spare i would throw one in but they`re so hard to find that i would want $50 per horn button (If i could find some) Plus the cost of the refurb on them as well

so you could spend up to about $700 , or if you bring me your own wheel we can do it for maybe around $500, , , again depending on it`s condition

but still,,, i`ll get another couple done & have them hang on the wall here & if you`re sooper dooper cooper keen then ring me (07) 33 99 99 99 & i`ll put your name on one

pretty damn spiffy hey????
