Re: Reupholster Steering wheel and Binnacle



Check out American Stitches (www.american-stitches.com 3149 N. I-30, 
Ste. H, Mesquite, Texas 75150 888-403-3403 972-613-2914) they can 
recover your steering wheel in new leather and can add 1/16" or 1/8" 
padding under the leather to "enhance its look and feel". They may 
also be able to recover your binnacle and possibly your E-brake 
handle and shift knob (if you want that).
