Still working on bringing my Ebony 92 to perfection!

This week I gave her a nice cleaning, replaced the steering wheel, and replaced the dash button backlight bulbs. Looking pretty good for a 14 year old car!

Looks nice, what did you replace the steering wheel with? New or used. You need to repaint those wiper arms too Mine look about the same.

The engine compartment is a work of art!

That is one good looking SVX.

I just went with a "less used" stock steering wheel. My old one was nice until i hit it with some leather cleaner. The darned stuff took all of the color out of the steering wheel. I replaced it with a nice one from a lower mileage svx.

What is the brand name of the leather cleaner? Do you remember or has it been a while?

My memory is terrible so it's a good thing it only happened a couple of weeks ago. It was Lexol Leather Cleaner. Works great on the seats... not on the steering wheel.

Mike,
Lookin' good. Can't wait to see it in person. I'm planning on arriving in Slippery Rock on Wednesday evening (4/6). I'll give you a call on my way home from work tonight -- we'll talk.

Can't wait!
