Members,

It seems difficult to find an organisation to produce a quality "bakelite"
like covering on steering wheels.

Back about 8 or 10 years ago I had this problem when restoring RA 0259.  The
steering wheel went to Craig Seabrook in USA and came back looking
magnificent.  After a very short time, cracks appeared in the surface.  So
back went the steering wheel & it was done again.  Free of charge.

Unfortunately the covering has cracked again.  It is not that the car has
had a lot of use.  It has only been driven twice.

Anyhow, a really nice guy has just made a steering wheel for my "project
single seater MMM racer" and I went looking for some one to put the covering
on it.  Would you believe that, through a MMM member, I discover there is
some one in Sydney, Australia who does this work.  I have seen one of the
products on an MG TA, and it looks very professional.

Just thought you people may like to know.

Cheers

Pip
