This steering wheel is in overall great condition. It has a couple of light hairline cracks that will probably not show after painting it the color you chose to use. There are no gouges or wide deep cracks that you need to repair. The previous owner had painted it what looks to be a primer for his paint color. I bought it for a '63 SS which I never completed so it is now for sale. Please see the many pics that I took in order for you to see the actual condition. Asking $200 for this nice wheel. Thank you for looking.
