Re: Project "Sweet 16"

So... Finally... The moment we've all been waiting for. The steering wheel in color! (well, primer anyway)

Wet sanded it down this evening to work on the lines in the rim, and a couple small damaged spots I missed before. It's amazing what you can see in primer vs. multi-colored crap!

We are thinking that the final color should be Ivory with the horn button detailed in dark metallic brown. Will compliment the dark metallic brown dash and column nicely, and have a kind of period correct look.

Oh, and I found that a "Dollar Tree" broom handle makes an excellent stand for painting a steering wheel!
