A while back I mentioned that I had met a local guy who does steering wheel restoration for Sunbeams.
Some of you were interested is his contact info so here it is.
I spoke with him this morning to find out if it would be OK to give his contact info, and obviously it is.
His services are:
Repair/restore steering column covers.
Complete steering wheel restoration.
Steering wheel repair (small crack repair of rim and hub).
Re-pour of the plastic hub section (SIII to SV/Tiger only).
Repair of tiger wood rims.
Rimming wheels with hardwood (I saw these, they look very nice).
He mentioned he currently has several hand made wood rimmed wheels available, and more later this summer.
Contact is:
Ken Corbin
303-364-5787
He is in Aurora CO.
Tell him Jarrid from Arvada sent you.
This thread was started in the Stock Alpine forum, but since these wheels aren't stock, I moved it over here. I spoke with Ken a couple of days ago and again today. He sent me some pictures of his work which I'm posting here. Ed doesn't have a computer, so he had a friend send them. As Jarrid mentioned, he has several wheels on hand. You need to send him your old wheel, horn rim, etc. and a check for $400 and he sends you a rebuilt one ready to install.
If you would like to see some higher resolution pictures:
