'72 steering wheel crack repair?

Anyone out there know of any way to fill or repair this crack in my steering wheel, aside from this defect the rest of the wheel is perfect.

Thanks for any help.

I've seen plastic-weld work pretty good,they sanded and painted it though,it looked quite good.

Re: '72 steering wheel crack repair?

You may well need to enlarge the crack by beveling the sides ... this will give you more bonding surface area for whatever epoxy material you ultimately use.

Here is a "How to" on a '67 wheel. Should work the same on the later ones.
