Driver quality repair of my 1968 Pontiac GTO steering wheel. Some Bondo, some putty and lots of elbow grease sanding this thing back into acceptable condition. Link to the replacement spoke from OPGI is below.

That`s a fantastic job! Your steering wheel looks as good as new. Someday would like to do something similar to my 1970 C10 Pickup. Great tips on refinishing & filling cracks. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! It turned out better than I had hoped for. I'm curious how it will hold up, but so far I am very pleased with how it looks. Thanks for watching!

Good to see how you solved the string and the yellow wires. I tried it and was stumped by the whole thing. I gave up and put the old parts back. I still have the new parts and might try again. I really question why they made the replacement parts the way that they did.

Yeah, it had me stumped for a bit.

You can buy a new center cap from OPGI. Don’t. The steel prongs that hold the center cap on are inferior and won’t hold it firmly.

Appreciate that information. Some "repro" items are decent and others can be questionable. My cap cleaned up decently, so it's good enough for now. The spokes were actually better than I expected, so that helps brighten up the whole thing. Thanks for watching!
