Thanks.
Mike Lempert made the wheel. It’s English walnut with design inspiration from a 1930s Bugatti steering wheel.

Gorgeous. His did you paint the plastic? Simply sand and paint with plastic paint? Those metal dash fillers are also very nice looking. I had seen something like that for sale at mogparts.net . Where did you source yours?

Hi Bluesman,
The plastic steering wheel hub was professionally painted at one of our local shops.
I drew the dashboard insert templates including tach/speedo cutouts and drill holes on thick paper. Sent to FPM Metals in Nebraska. They laser cut the dashboard panels out of stainless steel and engine turned. I designed the tach/speedo bezels on paper. They were milled out of solid stainless steel and polished by local artisans. I also had to redesign the the tach/speedo mounting brackets behind the dashboard and had them cut out and drilled by local metal workers.

I'd like a Mike Lempert wheel too, but by the time it gets impounded for UK import tax, & all the shipping costs they can become very expensive

The current reviews of Lempert delivery are not very favorable. Some nice looking wheels, but...
