Late Chev Steering Wheels & Paint

[Don Dingwall]

I just finshed refinishing my wood wheel for my 44 Chev.
It is wood, and had a coinsiderable amount of khaki paint on it, where the rim was not worn too much.
But after sandblasting it and sanding it, I masked it off and varnished it anyway with a tough marine varnish. May not be "original" or "authentic" but the wood grain looked too nice to me to cover up again.

Brian Asbury has Aervo Khaki 35087 here in Ontario that is close to what was already on my truck, so I went with that.
As for "correct" paint, I won't even open that can can of worms. Just try to match original paint on your vehicle.
