How bout that .. !

With what little handling I did to install the trick cover, the paint rubbed off in a few areas ..




Got another one on the way ..
Do want to see a new look on the steering column ..



Much better ..
Need to shorten it some ... That will happen when the column is back together .. Still working with the adapter ...
