Old steering wheel worth selling?
A couple of weeks ago I had hubby's steering wheel replaced with an OEM wood & leather wheel I found on eBay. The black birdseye maple & stone leather combo looks fantastic!
Now I have the original steering wheel sitting in my garage. Is it worth trying to resell? It would have to be refurbished since the leather on the wheel is dirty and deteriorated. I've looked around but can't find any used wheels for sale so I can't gauge if it has any worth.
TIA!

I got mine from this guy: http://stores.ebay.de/AGE-Tuning and there are others on this board that has done business successfully with him as well. He is located in Sweden but very easy to talk to and seems likea good guy.

Is it just a matter of unplugging the airbag and button wires and unbolting the wheel? Most steering wheels I have seen required a puller. Is there any differences from an '07 to an '06?
Thanks

Here is a fast breakdown:
Magnetic red w/ black racing stripes
4 speed
375 hp. 350ci (exstensive motor work call me for info)
411 limited rear
aluminum 3 core radiator with dual electric fans
disc brake/power steering optioned
optima red top battery
Bucket seats
Chrome cragers w/ radial t/a tires
The car is beautiful in and out, no rust on the floors or trunk. It just finished an extensive resto about 1 1/2 years ago. I will have to take some new pics, it has been sitting under a cover in the garage since January. We had a boy in January, and I just don't see any chance of me driving it any time soon.
I am looking for a check (or cash ) of $20,000. I'm not looking to negotiate, I've got a lot more than that in it- just looking for everyone to be happy. Call me if you are interested.
Thanks

-Take off the airbag
-Unscrew the center nut
-Take off the wheel
...repeat in reverse.
You don't need a puller.
