Just re-read the first post. How in creation did you find a pair of NOS grips? Nice restore. Looking forward to hearing the backstory.

Wow, that is one hell of a job! Very nicely done. What was the process for restoring the wheel?

@MikeRocksTheRed
The wheel is an 8" steel wheel originally from a 1960's Weber. I just shined it up and painted the white wall to match the handles.

Wow, that is one hell of a job! Very nicely done. What was the process for restoring the wheel?
