Steering Wheel from the Buena Park Swap Meet (Picker's Paradise)

The overview picture doesn't show it well but the aluminum needs a little cleaning and the leather is also pretty dirty.




Got the hub recently at another swap meet.  It happens to be the right interface for this steering wheel.  Note that all the holes line up.  Need some screws to put them together... 





After Cleaning
Found some screws that fit, but some of the holes have threads that are not smooth.  Will need to run them down with a tap.  The threads are SAE/English (not metric)...








The leather cleaned up.  Again, the pictures don't show but there was a lot of dirt on the leather.  The cleaning cloth turned pretty much black in the process.
