Default Breaking an '85 in south US

Hey I'm heading out to a breakers yard to pull bunch of bits off a gold '85 XJ6. Looks solid, un-wrecked and pretty complete. If anyone has a specific smaller parts needs leave a reply and I'll try to grab you anything reasonable that's available.

No tranny or diffs, whole engines etc. But if you're in the market for those types of parts PM me and I'll give you the address.

I really could use an intact steering wheel and the rheostat for the interior lighting.
Will be coming stateside for two weeks on april 22nd (Orlando area)....will know the exact address when arrived (Orlando vacation homes)...

Welcome to the USA. A few members of this forum live in the Orlando area or close by.
Maybe you'll get to see our cars.
Is the steering wheel for an XJS? Series 3 steering wheels are different, I believe.
A friend of mine has a '84-85 XJS he bought for parts.
If I am not mistaken, the steering wheel is in great shape and still on the car.
I will speak to him later today and post results.
I am 70 miles from Orlando.

The steering wheel is intented as a spare for my Series III, for as long as my wooden Nardi wheel is in restoration. (It has cracked nearly all way round from moisture, so I'll be sanding, glueing and filling a lot..... ;-)

I could use a brake booster if it will work on a S3 86 XJ6. Mine has sprung a leak by the sounds of it.
