New tiller

[Ghoste]

I had a little cash windfall come my way so I decided to treat the 69 to a new steering wheel since I like the woodgrain ones so much.  Called up Tony's Parts and had this beauty sent my way.

   looks  a nice wheel !!        original ?

[Ghoste]

Yes.  I don't have a better pic right now unfortunately but yes it's all nice and dark without any pits on the spokes and the woodgrain is like the day it was made.

Noice!

  very nice!
I bought the repop from classic this past summer, if I'd known you could get great originals like that one I would have waited.
Hats off too you

That's a very nice wheel.  Well worth spending your windfall on. 

[Ghoste]

I should fess up on the windfall because it makes the story even sweeter.  As some of you know, my wife and I split up this year.  During this process I played a never ending game of mental judo against her in order to come out favourably in the legal battle (which I did very much btw ) sooooo, as part of this strategy I complained to her endlessly about how much it cost me when her lawyer sent a revised draft of the agreement back.  It was a lie but my goal was to keep her on edge.  She finally got so fed up with my bitching about it that she offered to pay the non-existing extra fee to shut me up.

I spent it on this. 

[Fred]

As you say.......all the sweeter coming from her. You lucky son of a gun!

It cost me everything I had to bet rid of my first wife but I would gladly have given more.

It wasn't easy but I kept the house, the cars, most of the furniture and she pays me.  And I'll smile every time I hold that steering wheel. ( I would have anyway but...)

Glad to see you came out on top

[Ghoste]

Me too but it sure did suck when the kids were told and no steering wheel is worth that.
