Long Beach Car Swap Meet -- Sunday, January 12, 2020 -- Drag Racing Steering Wheel (before & after cleaning)

It's never been used (no holes drilled in the center).  It's been roughly handled so it has some scratches on the metal and the suede leather is scuffed in multiple places.  There is no maker name/mark on it but it does say "Made in Italy" with a "6-01" number (model number?  date? ...).




This is a very small wheel (maybe 10 inches across at the widest spot...).















After initial cleaning of the center (the above picture is the "before", below is "after").

After final cleaning (used a suede brush to clean the leather and sanded the aluminum center to achieve an even finish).  The suede still shows some of the scuffing but overall, it looks presentable.
