Just realized that I did not show the finished steering wheel set up.
gearstick position not finalized may need extension removing and/or stick modifying.

Always been wondering how to treat the steering column.
as I had a spare dropped it off at the local machine shop to do a better job of removing the end.
YouTube gave me ideas for what to do with the finish.
a job for next week as I am busy in Corsham this weekend.

you have to do really small areas at a time to get good colour.
