Jeff Stevens in New York.  See attached link.

Here is a quote from the 1965GT350Mustang.com site:

Here is 5S003's steering wheel prior to the wood restoration, the spokes were polished first to an inch of their life by Dale Knutson, the paint person for 5S003. The wood wheel will now be restored by Jeff Stevens, who restored the wood wheel on 5R002, just for consistancy between the two cars and because he is really good at what he does.

David's email isn't working so try calling if you need to reach him.
I emailed twice and each time returned.  Have not tried calling yet.

I hope I am wrong but I didn't think he was still restoring the wooden wheels.
