Scanning thru the Feb issues of Hemmings I found a listing for Gary's Steering Wheels. I didn't think I had heard of them but looked on our Parts & Service page and there they are listed.  I had to have added the listing but forgot who recommended them.   Has anyone else heard of them or used them to restore their steering wheel. I am interest as mine steering wheel, which was done 20+ years ago by a placed in SC that is no longer, is starting to show hairline cracks. I know there is a place out west that does them for a cool $1500 to $2000 (or maybe more now!) but this outfit is not too, too far from me and maybe not as expensive... well, one can dream.

Anyone deal with them? Here is the listing in Feb 2025 Hemmings: 


STEERING wheel restoration: all types of wheels, specializing in woodgrain wheels, Corvette, GTO, AMX, Road Runner, Challenger, Mustang and Cadillac, Thunderbird, Mopar inlay type wheels, Ford rim blow wheels, domestic or foreign, satisfaction guaranteed, since 1983.

Eldorado George can be very expensive for certain items.

Can't say I've heard about Gary's Steering Wheels, but Steering Wheels by Kris has some absolutely stunning examples of his work on his website. Might be something worth adding to our Parts & Service link. Here's the web address https://steeringwheelkris.com/

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 Comments

Hey guys,

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
