Default Steering Wheel Leather help

Can anyone point me to company that can cover a C3 steering wheel in leather for my 67?
I know you can get steering wheel covers, but I want one hand stitched.
I have used the later model ones in the past, but I want to use one from a 69.

I will give you 2 options to consider:

Find a local auto upholstery shop...they can do it.

or

Try this (Wheelskins), it's what I did. Stitched leather, easy install.

Chuck did this one for me. I was tired of the hard, slippery plastic.
