AS anyone bought or seen in person the repro woodgrain steering wheel from PG classic or BE/A
If so , how does it compare to an original,
It doesn't (by the photos I've seen).

If those are the wheels I'm thinking of, they are way off.
The woodgrain looks overexagerrated but it's the spokes that blow it away. Basically bright shiny chrome, not the dull satin finish that originals had.
I appreciate the input, but have you seen them in person or just the pictures. I also find the pictures of the spokes too shiny,
Sometimes the camera can play tricks on images and finishes

Saw it in person, someone had one at a show recently. If I remember correctly, it was at the WPC Winter Swap meet this past January. The spokes were way way way too bright and the woodgrain very pronounced. It looked almost 'cartoonish' to me.
I'll save my $435 to have one of my originals restored.

With this in mind I'll have my original restored and it looks like the NOS 70 I have isn't worthless after all ...

Has anyone seen the leather Tuff Wheel that Mike is selling? BE&A's price is better than the other places and I need a couple of them.
