    RELEASED: New GTS / Sandman Steering wheels

    Hi Guys

    Hopefully blocker doesnt mind me posting here
    Yesterday we finally received our first shipment of the GTS / sandman steering wheels, they should be instore now or early next week in most of our distributors

    For those interested due to ADR requirements they are later style thin wheels, they are a great improvement in the originality stakes compared to previous versions.

    Cav

    As I posted on fastlane for Les, you need to advertise these properly. Sandman badge is HQ only, HJ-HX are blank. Same for SS, ie HQ SS only. SS Torana is blank.

    Hi Big Cav, as HK1837 says these steering wheels only suit HQ sandman, are you going to do different centre caps for HZ with the lion button? they look great BTW
    HZ Jasmine Yellow Windowless Sandman, now being driven everywhere and is finished!
    HZ Madeira Red Windowless sandman now Sold to Bigrob
    HX Mandarin Red Sandman Ute finished, and club registered

    @buickzz ... No they don't, my local Rares guy showed me one and the new bosses are shaped just like the originals. Tho I'm no expert, these new wheels looked very, very good. I have a NOS genuine wheel still in the Bridgestone box which I want to take down and compare it to these ones.

    not that my opinion means much to most as a seller but i have personally done the same comparison and they are great.

    To Jenny and Byron, yes they will be fixed, i havent had time to do it myself due to work commitments and hanging rock car show this weekend and i beleive Les has been flat out aswell, hopefully early next week i will get onto it, in regards to the hz lion cap i will have to check with work, i have been out of the office for a few months now

    Will the original HJ GTS horn button/allen bolts fit this version of the repro wheel Cav? If so do you have a link for a wheel sans horn button?

    Regards,

    Dave.
