I spent Saturday in the shop working on the hood latch and release. I still have more to do so I will share that later.
Since I was at a stall point with that, I decided to work in the steering wheel. Chris Plump from American Racing had a one off steering wheel made to match the #vn506 wheels. I recieved it right before LST and quickly installed it before the show. Unfortunately no time was available to wire the horn button.

I wanted to make the horn functional so i pulled the wheel to see what was needed. While it was off I decided to dye the leather wrap to match my interior color. With the wheel blown apart I went one step further. Since the VN506 had a custom brushed center, why not make the steering wheel match.

Of course it sounds simple enough. Grab a fresh pad of Scotch Brite and scuff it down. That's all good except getting the brush even is not easy. I have a couple of hours invested but I like the results so far. I will add satin clear to seal it once done.
