I must say, I do like the 3 spoke look (mine is a little larger than yours though :D), and that dash of yours is looking great! The horn button looks much happier in it's new home than it did on the wall above my desk!

I think you will be needing one of our correct Pre '57 Gear Shift boots though, and while you are about it a nice set of early pedal rubbers!

Keep up the good work Chris!
