[Mgs] MGB steering wheel question

[Ron Fine]

On my 66 MGB with original style plastic wheel, I purchased a leather cover 
which is installed with a lacing system that works great.  Makes the wheel 
feel good in your hands.  This cover was also available in 1966 when I used 
one on my '65 MGB.  I assume they are still being made somewhere.
