Bill Boudway Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Glenn did an excellent job on the steering wheel for our 1919 Packard.A very challanging project with finger jointed segments and partial wood covering on three of the spokes. If I'm lucky, there will be a photo of it on this post. His address: 619 South Spruce Street, Nazereth, PA 18064. Tel. # (610) 759-4276 (shop) (610) 759-4642 (house) e-mail: snyderswood@fast.net Hershey space # CB-65-68.Good luck.Bill B. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1937hd45 Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Bill, That Packard wheel is really unique! Does the spider go all the way out to an aluminum rim or end in wood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Boudway Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Hi,Thanks for your question.The Packard steering wheel spider has a rim at the end of the four spokes.Regards,Bill B. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Boudway Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 I understand from a friend that Glenn is vacationing in Florida now. He's also delivering another Packard Twin Six steering wheel that he recently finished. <img src="http://www.aaca.org/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
