Looking to have a '69 3 spoke, black steering wheel restored. The usual plastic crack/gaps. Looking to have the entire thing done, who does the best job and approximate costs???
I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

Yes, that's a beautiful looking wheel BUT where's the "grain" in the rim?????

I think what he was asking about is the somewhat rare 69 Barracuda wheel that has the 3 spokes just like the wood wheel, BUT is a colored plastic wheel with pebble ? grain texture (it's not a smooth wheel) I had a brown one years ago , and have seen them in blue, red, & black.

ahhhh yes, thanks for the clarification Greg! I'd forgotten about those wheels.
If that's the style you need then you'll have to find an original wheel that's un-cracked and not worn down.
Sorry, no one is doing that textured finish at this time that I know of.
