New steering wheel and horn button/decal

[BIGBLCK11]

Here is my new Grant wheel with walnut wood.  I know it's not stock, but I will hang on to the original.  I actually got it for xmas last year, I was waiting to swap it when I did my 4 speed install.  I really like it, looks very old school to me, like the ones I always saw in the late 70's as a kid at car shows.  I just got around to making up the decal for the horn button today and thought I'd share.

LOVE IT!! Thats what I've been wanting for my 70 RR...but settled for a "tuff wheel" that I don't like. U wouldn't happen to have a part # would ya? 

[BIGBLCK11]

Sure, I will verify the part number tonight.

You done an excellent job making an emblem for the horn button. It looks like something that could have been original. How did you do it by the way?

Thanks, I do some vinyl signage/decals on the side, mostly for fun and few dollars here and there.  I like playing around with fonts and graphics. I wanted to setup shop, but it is hard to go from a weekly paycheck and benefits to self-employed.  I have a Roland cutter/plotter and use SignLab software.  It was pricey back when I bought it, but now you can get setup for under $500 or less, with an entry level rig.  The red is holographic vinyl, $5 a foot, that really made it look commercial.  Luckily, I bought just a foot at a local sign shop and not a $100 roll.

I can probably hook you up with that.  But, the outdoor life on the holographic film is much shorter than the regular heavy vinyl I use.  I will check, but I think it is rated for 1 year vs. 5-7 years.   However, it is not like your car sits out in the elements.  I was actually going to pm you on a 70 right front turn signal lens, as it was suggested by another member.  Maybe we can work a deal, if you happen to have one.

It is a Grant - Classic Series,  Part #967-0.  You need the specific installation kit.  The billet horn button adapter and black center are extra, it comes with a chrome steel horn button.  They have a Plymouth one for ya too!  I was debating on the mopar button, but decided to make the triad logo and have my own custom.  You can also buy a blank button.  You may be able to find a combo elsewhere, but Summit only lists a Cheby one that saves you $8 for the button and billet adapter together.
