The steering wheel is your primary user interface, it's usually worth a bit of effort to make it nice. We've used Wheelskins covers on a few of ours. Nice, but the installation is a bit tedious. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives

Re: [MBZ] Interesting 220Sb on BAT

Absolutely, to each his/her own. If it was really rough or there was concern about it hurting me with scratching or cutting, I would do it as an interim fix until I could restore/replace. The restoration process isn’t difficult, but time consuming. A lot of fill/dry/sand, rinse and repeat

Re: [MBZ] Interesting 220Sb on BAT

I have a leather wrap on my W211 steering wheel. The original varnish/plastic finish on the wood sections was cracked and chipping off. I bought a lace-on leather wrap that is thin (it's just leather, no padding), it fits really tightly, feels nice in the hands, and IMO looks good. I appreciate

Re: [MBZ] Interesting 220Sb on BAT

Nearly everything expands and contracts with heat. A major source of trouble would be differential coefficients of expansion between the plastic(s) and the steel spine. Ideally they minimized that by choice of plastic, but did they? (Consider the lowly vacuum tube or incandescent light bulb.

Nothing, but consider that you’re looking at material that’s been exposed to the elements for all intents and purposes for over 60 years, I wouldn’t be terribly concerned myself. That and I would also be storing the vehicle in far less extreme conditions that it had probably experienced over

Exactly. POR-15 made a steering wheel restoration kit some time ago that was basically a couple blocks of their epoxy putty and some sandpaper. That’s all it takes. I’ve never done it, but I was prepared to before Jamie found the reamining stock being sold, so I bought a new one. And it was

Re: [MBZ] Interesting 220Sb on BAT

My experience (W115) is that the epoxy-like plastic shrinks with age, and once the accumulated stress exceeds the remaining material strength a fissure opens up, and only gets wider with increasing age. Nothing is loose, mobile, or crumbly. It seems like it would be a pretty good base for the

Re: [MBZ] Interesting 220Sb on BAT

No. The pieces of remaining steering wheel material are firmly anchored in place to a steel ring which is the foundation for the steering wheel. It’s just expansion and contraction of the material over many years that causes the cracks, I presume. When they do crack, and even when pieces come
