Leather steering wheel wrap?
A while back a vendor was selling leather wraps for steering wheels. They had holes pre punched and reinforced with plastic grommets. You had to provide the wheel diameter, length wanted and wheel thickness. You then stiched the wrap on your wheel with a baseball stitch.
Anyone know where I saw this? I tried the search function and got what seems to be every post on the forum for the last umpteen years, most were not even related to the steering wheel.
thanks. I also posted this is wanted to buy section.

I also put a Chuck Pelton wheel in my 70. I had a core wheel from an 80 and had Chuck customize for me. He brushed the spokes and put a black cover on the wheel. I love it.

[QUOTE=paul 74;1569212110]This is a Chuck Pelton, leather-wrapped wheel for my 1974.
Paul, was that the original skinny plastic wheel? It looks like it by the finger grip mounds on the back. I'm not sure when they started putting a more comfortable wheel in the corvettes.

I'd like to get a black leather wrap on my '73. Do you remember what Chuck charged?
