it looks great. all the black came out and feathered the wear out. still have to revarnish it.

back side

here are some pict's of the cleaned up and installed wheel

and

the wheel had a split in it that i filled with some epoxy wood filler. it didn't take stain very well. but doesn't look to bad.

Cool! It looks MUCH better now for sure! I wonder what brand it is? It said "Made in Italy" on the back.

i think it a personal

How about a little detail here. Process etc...? How did Dan help? Secret process or recipe for stain or varnish? Enquiring minds want to know!

thanks to Dan 'cause he took pitty on this csob and don't tell any one but he gave me a great price on it and the hub adapter. [i have made comments on how i liked that wheel].

process? sand it down [150grit to 500 or 1000 if you want it really polished. then cherry stain and finished with spar varnish [ i found some spray can stuff that worked very good.]

sorry i didnt take b4 pict. of mine. it looked very similar to yours.

the crack [or split] in mine was pretty wide and deep,thats why i filled it with epoxy wood filler.

Thanks Troy!

I never thought I liked wood wheels in 914s, but they're starting to grow on me and I really like this one. Yours looks cool too. I don't think that filler strip looks too awful. I'm going to have to do that with this wheel also.

I bought my car with the wood wheel (dino) & dash face and I really like the look.

garold that looks real nice. one of a very few that had the wheel and dash trim match.

We were looking at Steve's car at RRC and talking about that very thing. He has a wood dash that actually looks nice. As does your of course. With a matching wheel no less.
