I've seen new repop steering wheels on Ebay from "PG Classic reproductions". Has anyone purchased one? How is the quality? Do the original parts (horn switch, horn button) fit properly? Where are the made?

Thanks, Tom

I have one. looks very nice. Biggest difference are the spokes. These a shinny chrome vs a satin finish. I am sure the horn button will fit.

Actually Pete, the spokes are polished stainless steel. If you wet sand it with 1500 if will look like the satin chrome like the originals.

I can do that here, before it ships if anyone would perfer it that way.

I know shinny isn't right, but, dang it's pretty that way and very easy to change. One thing you'll never have to worry about is the spokes ever rusting again.

I know they shine, have to wear sun glasses when I look at it. The stainless is a plus. I think I would prefer the satin finish.

i need a 65 plymouth wheel in gold fawn, they arent repopping that color. you would think with all the a990 hemi cars needing this color it would have been there 1st choice over red and black.

Mike,
Did you ever finish the 70 RR steering wheel? You mentioned that you were working on them a couple of years ago at the 'Nats.
Thanks,
Barry

Who said we aren't going to do that color? I just received a wheel that had enough color left in it to reproduce from thx to Tony at Tony's Parts.

We will also be doing the 64 wheel also.
