Anyone have suggestions for elimnating my hands from sticking to the steering wheel?
I assume the leather is just worn out, but is there any type of treatment that will get it back into shape?
1976 model
Thanks, Ken

Driving gloves. It's the only sure way. 
You can try some of the Leather cleaners/conditioners, too. Lexol makes some pretty good stuff.

I don't know if WD 40 is good for leather, but I know that it will take the "sticky out of sticky." So.....it's your call, Cowboy.

I just saw a chrome chain wheel at the swap meet!
I knew this topic would get some interesting replys, just testing the waters.
Anyway, I am gonna try the leather conditioner, and if that dont work, that fur wheel cover would look sweet.

Or do what Joel does... He has a 2 inch nap steering wheel cover that looks like an old bathroom rug. I think he stole it from Micki and Davids house. Pssst, we just call him pimp....
