Road Runner Nest

This is my custom hub and steering wheel setup - I got sick and tired trying to find a aftermarket hub for our bbodies so I decided to get one made. I like the bigger grips of the aftermarket wheels available for my big mits. I bought this hub, its for an ebody (what a heavy beast) but it gave me enough matierial to shave off what I needed.




I had a machine shop shave it down to this:



got it powdercoated black



old height stock wheel 5 3/8" deep



new height with MOMO steering wheel 3 1/8" deep



New 350mm MOMO wheel compared to the stock OEM one



I bought a 1970 steering wheel decal and was hoping it would be big enough to fit the whole MOMO button and it did, what I didn't know is about the 1970 decal is that the sticky side is on the picture side not the back side, so I took it to a local decal shop and got some made:



sanded the MOMO button (it has raised lettering with wet sand paper until she was flat:





TA-DA! The end result!




I also should note that I had to bend the flasher more straight so it wouldn't interfere with the new wheel setup!

Nice work. I like the valve covers too, ( in the other post).

Awesome! I have also choosen to go a similar route with my project. Although i bought a new coloumn from flaming river, as well as one of their wheels. Had to fabricate both the upper and lower mounts to make it work tho. The wheel i choose is very reminisant (to me) of the 93-94 vipers, which coordinates with the 06 viper seats very well. I also had a "factory" style roadrunner decal made to fit my horn button! great minds think alike

Modern with a touch of old school. your speaking my language haha. GREAT JOB! laterz

Maybe ill post pix of my setup (if i can ever find some free time)

^I'd love to see your setup!
