CHEVY '49 STEERING WHEEL

Rob Fortier former Editor of " Classic Truck" magazine and now Editor of Rod & Custom Magazine in California: sent his '49 Chevy steering wheel to Australia for some TLC.
After repairs and shelf life, we pearl plasticised the wheel in vivid white. Steering wheel eventually fitted to Rob's "kick ass" '53 Chevy Belair. These amazing shots of Rob's Chev with the fitted wheel were taken by Mark Kawakami of http://www.joyridesartcompany.com/
Thanks Rob!
Thanks Mark!

FORD MAINLINE 1955 UTE

Henk & Marg Mennen from country Victoria have restored this very cool 1955 Mainline Ute.

They sent upholstery samples along with their steering wheel. We pigmented our pearl to come up with this interesting combination of dual colours.

Marg very kindly supplied these photos which were her own handy work.

PONTIAC STAR CHIEF 1956

Paul Mills of Florida sent his steering wheel along with a small colour example "down under" back in 2007. Following repair work--the pearl was pigmented with Paul's matched colour, hand applied to wheel and the result was fantastic-- reminded us a bit -- the colour of a "Marilyn Monroe" mink, off white with slight undertones of silver grey. . Paul has done a mighty job restoring his Pontiac, recently photographed on the beach in Key West Florida USA.
