Here's a strange question - if you've been keeping up with us, you know we just got my daughter's '77 Trans Am running again a few weeks ago after an overhaul. The steering wheel has been sticky ever since we've had the car, maybe from heat and age (we're in S. TX but the car came from CA and AZ) or maybe from too many greasy fingers working on the car and touching the steering wheel. No matter how much we clean it, we can't get all the sticky off. It's better than it was, but still not right.
Any ideas about what to clean it with? I'm probably just going to put on a steering wheel cover but I'd like to get it clean first. It's one of those hard plastic late-70's steering wheels, not a proper Trans Am steering wheel.
As an aside, we took the car out to the local car club "Saturday Night Cruise" through the Sonic. We met the car club guys, had a quick shake, and she was the hit of the car club with her red Firebird. Made her day.
Thanks, Kerry
