Re: [Chrysler300] Steering wheel restoration

["RLS" <obiwan10@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have contracted with Dennis to do a wheel for my B.  Should see it next week.  Cost is a bit steep at 2,400.00 plus another 700 that I spent for a replacement horn ring and its refinishing.  I had that done at Christiansen chroming and it looks great.  The whole package was likely under 50 bucks in the 1956 part manual.

Still looking for a mint Benrus steering wheel clock.  Anyone have one that they are willing to part with?

I think that the B's wheel is much more expensive than others due to its complexity, so don't use this number as a gauge for what yours might cost.

    Jean-Yves,
  Mine was restored by Dennis Crook of Quality Restoration, Poway (San Diego), California. He was not cheap but the wheel is perfect, and has a lifetime warranty against cracking and yellowing. It is not painted, it is injection molded acrylic, sanded and polished to a mirror shine.

  Dennis is a great guy to deal with. He explained all the details of the process and how long it would take. He has a new website with lots of pictures. His quality and workmanship is unmatched. Many would agree that my wheel is one of the best features on my 300H.

  Hi.
  Can anyone recommend a place to get a steering wheel restored? I thought I have 
  seen on the list a while back someone had their 60 Dodge steering wheel redone 
  (brilliant flakes in the clear and all!) and of course I forgot to save the 
  info.
  Thanks!
  Jean-Yves.
