wood steering wheels
« on: September 09, 2011, 02:19:04 AM »
Hi. Does anyone have any opinion on re-pro wood steering wheels? Is there an acceptable brand that is closest to original? I don't feel like spending $$$$$$$ on a cracked-up original. Congrats. Jerry on your class win at Indy. We were parked almost next to you-F/SA--STOCK ELIMINATOR-  09 Challanger drag-pak.       Thanks, dan-the-man

Most are horrible. They look nothing like the originals. However, there's one manufacturer touting one that's supposed to be "correct" but I haven't seen it yet so I can't comment. HERE'S the one I'm talking about, but again, without seeing it in person I can't comment. PARAGON also sells it, but it looks a little too light and a little too smooth in that picture.

Main complaint on the repros is cracking after a short time.
Learning more and more about less and less...
