very nice car!

I have a light blue 69 4 door with an sr20det in it. Not nearly as clean as yours but its a driver. What a blast. I will be following this thread, keep up the good work.

have you gotten the steering wheel installed or know whats involved? I'm wanting to do the same thing but im having a hard time figuring out what hub/boss/adapter i need to be able to run an aftermarket wheel. I don't want to buy the wrong one.

I got an old boss kit from the 80s fits the nardi perfectly. There's a few boss kits on eBay that should work out for you. Hard part with the nardi wheels is the horn rings are quite different to other brands.

thanks for the info.

I have seen the boss kits on e-bay. Im thinking i might pick one up. I don't have a wheel yet but they looks like lots will fit.

good info on the nardi horn rings. I actually really like the fat wood nardis the best, NOT that im trying to copy you, you just must have really good taste :P

Whats the solution to the nardi horn problem? or is it not a problem and you just need to source the right parts for the horn from nardi (or get one thats more complete)

I like some of the older wooden momo wheels as well, but it looks like the boss kit would fit either.

Love your car BTW.

That fuse/relay panel bracket is a nice piece! Looks factory made, sweet.
