67special Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Your car looks great! I am so motivated to get this thing restored and in some shows. I just got it last week, I hope to have it presentable by fall and in show condition by next spring. Thank you so much for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1special66 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Thanks, but your's look great too. We have gone to several hometown, car club shows and one 8 trophy's in the last 2 yrs. Are you going to leave it stock ? If you ever want to swap information, just let me know. My email address is cposekan@cfu.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67special Posted May 11, 2006 Author Share Posted May 11, 2006 Trying to go as stock as possible, we'll see how that goes. Having gas tank problems right now (leaking) and dummy light is coming on everytime I hit brakes. Other than that it's pretty good other than a cracked steering wheel.I'll hit you up if I have any questions, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1special66 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hello, We had the orginal steering wheel restored. And let me tell you it is not cheap to do it. But it looks great when it got done. Need more information let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest my3buicks Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 I have seen some very nice results also from people grinding out the cracked area, filling with some of the new epoxies and then painting the wheel, might not cut it for high end judging, but the results I have seen are very nice. I assume your is cracked at the top of the horn bar part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
