steering wheel repairs?

84 Z-28 with original black leather wrap on original steering wheel - one, does anyone sell a leather rewrap kit with precut leather piece and stitching thread? and two, it appears that some of the actual steering wheel rim (under the leather) is breaking down or compressing, does someone actually have a service to disassemble and repair the rim and recover the leather, or is this a "do it yourself or buy a new wheel" deal. THX.

i dont think there are many, or ANY companies that have a kit for what you are looking for. I think your best bet is a new steering wheel (saves you money as well). im changing my wheel out of my 92 bird tonight.
