Smile Too much time on my hands....and it's cold

After 3 attempts I finally got the steering wheel off my 1450. Man 35/40 yrs sure have those things on tight. Sitting around with yellow fever and the weather here in MI so crappy I wanted to do something so I got to looking at my steering wheel and thought what the heck let's shine it up a bit.
Pic 1 is a spoke just as I found it, all nicks and sun fade. Pic 2 is a spoke wet sanded up to 1000k grit and pic 3 is the same spoke buffed with tripoli on a cotton buff. I'm amazed at how well the wheel cleaned up after 35 yrs or so of sun fade and other damage. They made em tough.
