RE: steering wheel

[Steven Charette <stevec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I wanted to look at one of those wheels at Carlisle and never got a chance -
I've been told that there are some molding marks on the back of the wheels
that need to be finished for the wheel to look like new - has anybody had
their hands on a new one?

B/E & A sells new wheels for the '65 (and 62-64) for $250. Various colors.
Sure beats paying to have one redone
