WOW: My STEERING WHEEL is BACK from being PEARLIZED in AUSTRALIA!!!

It just came in yesterday and it looks great. The NOS horn ring finishes it of nicely. I can't wait to finish the Starliner!!!

In case you missed the other post, here's who did the work http://www.pearlcraft.com.au/

It looks even better in person!

 

Damn, that looks good!

 

Wow!!!! That is perfect, and I feel like a big kook for just being speechless at this point.

If it looks that good now its gonna be awsome when its got a car attached to it

 

Wasn't a big fan at first. But, Wow! I think it would be a great late 50's or 60's Custom touch. In fact, the steering wheel looks pretty damn good by itself, just hang it on the wall, instant ART!

Thanks for sharing, I bet it wasn't cheap either.

that thing looks AWESOME!!!

 

looks great man, something you won't see too many more of around here!!

 

That's beautiful!

How come no one on this continent can do that??

 

Mind if I ask you how much that set you back? What condition was your wheel in prior to pearlizing? It looks amazing, nice pictures on their site.

 

How much did that cost?

 

With shipping both ways it was about $600.

The wheel was in nearly perfect condition before t was done. They do full restoration work too. So they can work with pretty much anything.

 

wow.

 

Good question.

 

Too sweet! I had thought about sending the 59/60 olds wheel I have for my 49 Fleetline to them and have it done. I'm not thinking anymore.....off it goes!

 

that is the coolset shit i've seen all day... ofcourse it's been a shity day. LOL fuckin love it man. Mongo showed me this thread weeks ago cause he was so excited about it. wish i had the dough to do it... guess i could. it just takes an adjustment of priorities.

 

WOW!, That looks fantastic, what a nice touch. Hey, now you can get a steering wheel that will match the handle of your switch blade knife!!

 

That's a classic Aussie custom touch, which (sadly) is rarely seen these days.

I guess we (we being us Aussies) can now say: "You put the steering wheel on the wrong side!"

Being that it's an Aussie steering wheel now!

 

Cool. Tell Lee you saw mine.

 

the one for my fuckin little roadster project is SOOOO goin there FO SHO!!! prolly da one for the 60 Olds tooo. too F'n cool my man...

 

I have a friend who had them do a '40 Ford wheel in red. Not even saying it is insanely beautiful would do it justice...

 

indeed so ! thats awesome work

 

They aren't going to have any trouble getting business after this thread. Send your steering wheels now!

Looks great Kirk!

 

I, also, am speechless.
Very very classy.
I need some fun money.

 

Those Aussie's rule.

 

do you think they can do my penis???? that would be rad!!!

 

According to http://www.pearlcraft.com.au/overview.htm they can't do soft and spongy things ;-)

 

Damn!

 

After seeing a ton of your recent posts,
its cool to see the "trickle down theory" at work,
if its lottery,workin money or job perks,
other than that 700 tranny, you've got some bitchin stuff.

After your last post I contacted the Aussies about applying their skills to the 56 Vette wheel I'm using in my Merc. I'm going to send it to them over the winter while the car is resting.

They sent a very nice response to my inquiry and gave me the whole skinny on sending the wheel - how to ship it, how to deal with customs on both ends. I have a really good feeling about this. I'm glad I learned about it here on the HAMB.

 

Holy Shit Batman That Wheel Looks Good...
