The old steering wheels are very easy to refurbish. There is a write-up in Sport Z magazine about it. I think it was June of last year (2001).

I did mine a few weeks ago.... took 2 days working in the evenings (had to let things dry a bit). Turned out looking VERY nice!!!!

The old steering wheels are very easy to find and very easy to restore.

Although some owners have changed the steering wheel, it is rare that I see a vehicle offered for sale without the original "wood" steering wheel. If by chance you should buy a car without the original one, post here as I'm sure there are literally dozens lying around.

By the way, the original wheel was not true blue wood, it was a special kind of fibrous plastic that resembles wood not only in appearance but also in texture etc. In fact, with care you can even stain it.

Good Luck.
