what ever works for you. And i belive correctly the wheel and horn should be a three spoke steering wheel and a round chrome or silver or black(unless colored to match interior) Horn cap.

But for what you currently have keiths picture is correct.

Keith you got one of those in wood burl?

I did one like that. Turned out ok. Used hardware store epoxy and filled
the cracks up. Bondo might work too, I guess. Painted it with black
lacquer and it looked pretty good. It was really messed up when I got it.
The guy I got it from threw it away. I rescued it! Lucky me. :lol:
