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.
