Recovered
With age and use, I finally had the shifter and steering wheel (added extra padding) recovered (back in Feb).

Re: Recovered
Looks great Tommy
I saw these in person folks, very nice work and attention to detail
Tommy, you might want to consider where you had these done, turnaround time and maybe the cost, if you feel like diverging
Oh, and now you can drive her again, yay

Re: Recovered
Thanks Bob. Yes I need to take her out for a drive, maybe sometime I'll have to swing by your place.
Chris Scow (located in Braunfels, Texas) did the work. Mine took about a week and a half as he was working on another project which I didn't think it was too bad, I forget the actual cost but it was 350.00 to 400.00 with overnighting the parts and back.
Best to contact him first to discuss what you'd like etc and he will give you a price for the work.
You can even have perforated leather at a small additional cost.
I need to get my e-brake handle done next which I should have done at the same time.
Super nice guy.
Here's his website: http://www.leatherwheels.com/index.htm
BTW: Thanks Bert for sharing his info.

Re: Recovered
Agreed, it looks good, the shifter especially so. The slighter thickness suits with the leather padded shifter console - on mine that console piece is just solid plastic.
Please show us the handbrake once that's done too.

One thread up there, Ellis
Or one thread down, now
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=29200
Appears they have used the same guy, same glowing reviews as well
Hmm, got me thinking, as my 27 year old Momo Monte Carlo could use a little help
