Looking for a 1971-74 Imperial/New Yorker tilt steering wheel with horn bar/cover/pad. Blue in color, no cracks. Bob
Those are the same quotes I got from this guy and a couple others were a little cheaper. But that wheel up above is very nice! Decent price for Rim-Blow I believe. The $1000-$1200 figure is for recasting a wheel.
Reach out to the steering wheel restorers and find out
1978 NYB: You got another wheel next to that one? Actually, the wheel you showed isn't as bad as the ones I've seen and have been repaired. They ct out the cracks and clean the wedged out cracks and then they use a two or three part epoxy plastics. Fill the cracks then sand with different sand papers, clean with certain solutions. Primer and paint and bake....Then finish by polishing. Those are the basic steps I'm told. Hemmings has a list in "Services"....there's 6-7 listed!
You can't
Well, well, well... That weatherstripping is another whole story in itself. I'm too tired. Let Combat Bob splain it to ya.also like to see well kept not cracked weather stripping!
