The Dodge Challenger Message Board

Anyone have a good picture of a Challenger stearing wheel? The spokes and maybe the horn button appear to have been bright blue at one time on mine. I think I can use some bright blue dye on this to bring it back. But I need to know what an original looks like.

I assume you mean the regular type wheel?

Here is mine. But the rim has been painted. It should be a nice woodgrain.

Here is a photo of a blue one in a low mileage T/A, the wheel has not been restored.

T/Ake care,

Great job!! Even bright blue!! Shows me exactly what I need to know.
Many thanks!!!

Professionally restored Mopar Dodge Challenger Rim Blow Steering Wheel. The woodgrain has been beautifully restored and all of the original dovetail / finger joints are still visible in the wheel. The spokes retain their original finish and are in excellent condition.

This is a used Mopar rim-blow wheel. The woodgrain has excellent full rich color. The factory original texture as well as the original "fake" dovetail joints are all present.

Question: How do you restore a steering wheel? The part that intrests me is the woodgrained plastic part. Anyone with some bright ideas?

I had a good one, and some bright spark threw it away!!!!!!! DOH

There was a guy that used to post on here that started a small business restoring steering wheels. It was quite a process and he did a good job of it.

I have seen some positive comments about The steering wheel guy (Doug Lepak)? Is he as good as they say?

Yes he is, I have seen his work. Doug is "The Man" when it comes to steering wheel restoration.
