Macy’s Garage is a business located in Ohio, and their website has a very informative article on wood steering wheels for British classic cars.
Mark writes “Installing a wood rimmed steering wheel is a quick and easy way to add a classic and elegant look to your car’s interior. But wood rimmed steering wheels are expensive, and not always the highest quality.”
Mark states that his favorite cars are Triumphs, and says “I’ll walk you through the options for installing a wood rimmed steering wheel on a Triumph TR2 or TR3, but this discussion could be applicable to most any classic automobile”.
If you are looking for a custom wheel then you would also find this interesting…”My neighbor Paul has an unusual hobby. He hand crafts wooden steering wheels, and they are truly things of beauty. Paul has been making wooden rimmed steering wheels for over 30 years. This custom wood steering wheel service is not just for Triumphs, but any OEM wheel with exposed metal spokes”.
So check out this site for some great info… http://www.macysgarage.com/myweb6/wood_wheels.htm
