If you're interested, I've been going at it full blast with that industrial sewing machine I bought last month! Here's what I've accomplished so far:

Radio & Clock Faceplates

Shifter and Brake Boots

Armrests

Shifter Knob Cover

Steering Wheel Cover

Thanks, coach-frank. I'll wager that, after I get more done and visit a few shows, I'll definitely start taking some orders for work. LOL! I *really* love this!

Very nice work Alan. Would you make me a black steering wheel cover for my 46? How much to do it and where can I send the funds. I could really use a decent one. I could also use a little snapable boot to cover the steering column on the floor after the carpet goes in. My seat was covered in black vinyl so I would like to stick with the same. If you are up for the job I can get back to you with all the dimensions.

Thanks,

Charlie

Beautiful work Alan. Let me know when you have some free time (hehe) and you can come down here and teach me how to do a seat cover for my 66. Tired of looking at this one and I trying to get up the nerve to do my own.

Thanks, guys.

Hey, Charlie

I'm not sure what it would entail to cover your steering wheel, but I gotta tell ya, mine was a 20-30 hour project! But I covered the entire wheel and part of the column ... also I used elk hide (nothing is more expensive than that!) ... so to do *that* kind of job, with elk, you're looking at no less than $750.00

But I don't think that's what you're saying, is it? If you just wanted a steering wheel cover ... just the part that goes around the wheel (hand grips), I can take care of you. I'll send you a PM.
