I was looking through e-mail when something from Dave Kunz popped up on the screen. Dave owns what is undoubtedly the most accurate '68 Bullitt Mustang replica fastback out there. Ford has used his Mustang in advertisements and television commercials here and abroad. It's officially the unofficial Bullitt replicar that everyone recognizes.
Dave learned about an awesome '67 Shelby reproduction steering wheel, produced in Switzerland and available from Branda Performance in Pennsylvania. We admit to sticker shock regarding the retail price of $2,500, although Dave says he was able to pick up his for less. Because these steering wheels are handmade and feature exceptional quality, they don't come cheap. They aren't produced in large numbers either, so be prepared if they're temporarily out of stock. Based on the look and feel, they're worth it.
Just ask Dave.

This reproduction steering wheel is something to be admired. It's handmade in Switzerland and available from Branda Performance. It's spot-on accurate in every detail with impeccable craftsmanship. Installation is easy because it arrives assembled and ready to install. Dave Kunz had the custom leather-wrap performed locally to simulate Frank Bullitt's '68 fastback. It's genuine woodgrain. | 
Dave disconnects the negative cable to eliminate the risk of short circuit and electric shock. | 
This quality reproduction is designed to fit '67 or '68 steering columns. Now is a good time to replace the turn signal switch. |

Dave sets the wheel in place and checks seating, then gets the fine thread locknut started. He has ascertained the shaft is at 12 o'clock with the front wheels straight ahead. Some Mustangs have a reference mark at 12 o'clock. | 
The steering wheel nut is torqued to 25-35 lb-ft. | 
The horn switch is similar to the aftermarket steering wheels from Grant Products. Connect the two horn leads. Make sure they don't ground anywhere. It's a good idea to use heat shrink around them for safety. |

Dave seats the horn switch in place, then installs the negative battery cable for an operational check. | 
Once installed, the Branda wheel looks and feels good. Dave's leather treatment is the icing on the cake. | |
