Steering wheel restoration

[JimZ]

I want to send my '65 Chevy truck steering wheel out for restoration. There seems to be two processes: repair and paint original wheel or take all the old material off and re-cast it from a mold. Anyone have an experience with either process? The vendors I'm looking at are "Gary's Steering Wheel Restoration"; "Quality Restorations Inc."; and "Steering Wheel Bob". Of these three, "Quality Restoration" does a re-cast from a mold. Has anyone had experience with any of these vendors? Can anyone suggest any other vendors? I will also post this in two other forums - not a clear category to place this in. Thanks.
