i looked at perko's sales catalogue web.site i found a steering wheel.go to www.rex marine.look at impys hot rod.billet steering wheels the cruiser series#1406 $220 real nice! i may at some point be interested in your AFB marine carb for the 68.need to watch the $ for now.stopped in the shop yesterday.they found a "soft spot"in the hull where the shaft bracket bolts through.moisture content was above 23%.not good.no big deal just more cash.they still plan to paint her next month

Kenny,
If you've got access to a West Marine, etc., store, go in and ask to look thru the Perko sales catelog, as they carry many more items than West Marine or Boat US carry in their yearly book(s). Can't say for sure that they'll have it there, but it's worth a check. The same is true for stern lights, as I know they carry a nice chrome version of the now-black plastic and alum model. Also, if you hound me, I'll look up the name of a company outside of Detroit which has gobs of stuff like this as well as other hardware such as NOS gauges, etc.. I'd still like an outlet or source for a good vintage looking steering wheel. |

yo. is this one close?budda is my light
i have seen the one for the 1960 for $225 from classic boat connection. glad i have a spare.perko made most of the lights, but i would keep searching. all the new ones are plastic junk. the diverter is broken on the 69 and 72 and i have yet to come across any of those. |
