Reproduction Rim Blow Steering Wheels

[erik70rt]

I'm toying with the idea of putting a rim blow steering wheel on my Challenger T/A 'vert build.

Has anyone used one of the reproduction steering wheels?  Thoughts on the quality?  Do they work well?

Thanks!

I was considering restoring my original '70 'Cuda steering wheel as part of my restoration project, but I opted for purchasing the Rim Blow wheel instead.

I have had other steering wheels restored in the past for other projects, and while the quality of restorations is sometimes good, the life expectancy is short and the costs is a lot more than a decent reproduction.

I bought the wheel from Classic Industries when the company had a "20% off" sale, and honestly, the quality was superior to any restoration I have had done. I did some research before I purchased it and I wasn't able to determine exactly where the wheel was manufactured. I found that is either made in Mexico or China (not sure if that was Taiwan or not). But I closely inspected it upon arrival, and the quality looked very impressive. I have not installed it yet, so I'd like to hear from others on whether it functions as nicely as it looks.
