I was just wondering what steering wheel that is? I bought the same one from a jumble and it's missing the centre piece :D
I need to find one, either that or I make one.

Epic build by the way, utterly jealous! I hope mine looks half as good as yours when I'm finished.

Best regards

Greg :thumbsup:
