The steering wheel on my 1945 Farmall A was bent when a support beam dropped on it due to a heavy snow load on the roof. No other damage to the tractor. I'd like to keep the original steering wheel as the Data plate on the tractor states MADE IN USA and thats the way I'd like to keep it. I have read other posts stating the aftermarket imported steering wheels do not look or feel as good as the originals. Several posts have claimed Minn-Kota company can resurface and repair the original wheel to like new condition. Will they be able to repair the bend to the dished spokes and recover the wheel to a like new original condition? If I send them the wheel will they repair and return this steering wheel or keep it as a core and return another steering wheel? Also, were the original wheels bare steel spokes or covered with rubber/plastic as it appears to look like in my Farmall A parts catalog? The wheel on this tractor which I believe to be original has bare steel spokes. Thanks for any advice or comments.
