Brian's dash is just fine, he keeps the carpet on there to protect it between concours.

Can you post some details on the interior work you've done? I'm spotting the wheel, shifter and boot, center console, lots of work. Looks fantastic.

You pretty much got everything......raised center console from Paul Champagne with a "sport" shifter from 928 motorsports that Paul also recovered....the shifter boot was done locally, designed to match Pauls work...the same shop also redid the seats a couple years ago....they are holding up very well too....then the steering wheel....I came really close to sending it to Paul to be redone in matching black-tan..but can't see spending even more money on a perfectly good steering wheel...but I probably will one day..... I got the steering wheel from 928gt....its a 930S steering wheel with an adaptor to work on the 928....pricey..but worth it!

Pretty much the only thing I have left is to fix the rear 1/4 panels..which really aren't that bad

New wheel looks great. Have any of you ever tried the leather rebuild kits that they sell to replace the leather on the steering wheel? Jason

I agree Brian, that is a very nice choice!

I bought my first one from Seth after he sold his '88 without installing it. I liked it so much I went and got a black one for my other 928.

I love the feel of that wheel, and it makes driving the sharks that much more pleasurable.

The only downside I've noticed is since it is smaller it obstructs your view of the gauges at the outer edges, like where the timing belt warning light is!!
