Jay762 Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Four spoke Italian leather steering wheel - will fit onto momo steering boss, some age related marks in leather, no tears or repairs cost over £200 back in the day looking for £80 postage will be dependant on destination etc plus I haven't weighed it yet ;) 1
Miggs Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 There's a brand from back in the day, I remember when max power was primarily a car magazine they had a yellow Vauxhall carlton gsi 3000 that they had as a project car, that had 3 spoke anteras on, I think it lasted a week with the new owner till he drove it into a shop front Awesome wheel, would look great in a classic impreza imo, good price too, best of luck with it pal, I'd have that if I was in a situation to get one
Jay762 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Posted February 2, 2014 I remember that Carlton - it was a huge amount of work they did on it just for it to be slammed, shame. I agree I think it would sit nicely in a classic - unfortunately one isn't coming along for me anytime soon otherwise I would keep it for my 22b replica :) 1
Miggs Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Yeh, the paint on the lower part of the carlton glowed under fluorescent lighting too Sent from my Nexus 7
Gambit Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 If my wheel I have now was in a mess I'd have had it but it's in good nick. And I do like the Momo badge And this car ?
Jay762 Posted February 2, 2014 Author Posted February 2, 2014 yup that was the one properly over the top but still a shame to see it trashed
Gambit Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Still think the 3 spokes needed to go they don't look good on cars that big :)
Miggs Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Was a lot of work in that car, so many 1 off parts like the rear arches, only the lotus carlton had the curved rear arch all others including the gsi had flat rears, the paint iirc was £15 for a pot the size of the airfix type, and the wheels looked the nuts back then but do look a bit lost now Sent from my Nexus 7
