Default Rebuilding Steering Wheel

Hugh
Have you spoken to Brian May to see if he can help. No one can own
more Bristols or bits of Bristol than him. Have a look at the piece I
did on him on www.jel450.com

Myrtle Productions did my 400 wheel and it hasn't been 100%
successful. The problem is that it's very bendy as are the spokes and
it cracks the Polyester Lacquer. It looks much better than before
restoration but there are cracks all round where the spokes meet the
rim, which may eventually result in chunks of lacquer falling off.
