Help with Houk wire wheel front hubs
I'm finally getting around to installing a set of Houk wire wheels that I purchased many years ago on my 1926/27 speedster project. There is a shallow cup shaped dust cover that is supposed to be installed on the front hubs and I don't know how it is supposed to be installed. It looks like it goes d...

Donnie:
I'm looking for the filler channels inside the stanchions. I now see that what Snyders has is the filler block inside the windshield. Apparently no one is reproducing the filler channel inside the stanchions. That's what I need.

Re: Composition of steering wheel spokes
Thanks for the info everyone. Hank: what method did you use to bend them? I'm thinking heat with oxy/acet, then gradually press down in a press or with C clamps. I think hammering might break the spokes. I would bend the tips so I can locate it in the center of the rim. This would also take up some ...
