    Steering wheel for HJ Prem

    I picked up a NOS Covert steering wheel for my HJ Premier off Ebay for $75. It turned up today, perfect. It is a mid HJ or HZ wheel (not the HQ style like is original for a 1974 HJ) but better than mine with a crack. I'll put it on and heep the other aside, maybe repair one day. Fixing up a non-GTS, Sandman, SLR etc is great! NOS bits are so cheap for much of it.

    I bet! And still just as nice as a fully restored GTS etc.

    75 smacker would have been top dollar for the wheel too. they come up a bit on ebay. In odd colours they do anyway!

    I agree, but I don't want to damage mine anymore than it is, so this will do for the time being.
