looking for the correct green paint for my steering column... also a 700r indicator?
 
Just won an auction for a tilt column. So now I need the right paint. My interior is green. The column is the somewhat lighter green, matches the steering wheel.

Also, where can I get an indicator that shows 4 gears to use with my 700r conversion?

Oh, I also need the automatic linkage... anyone??

Thanks everyone!

On a GMC it matches the glove box door & gauge bezel. I'm not sure about the Chevy.

It is my understanding that all Chevy tilts were black with a black steering wheel. I think the colum was a semi gloss. If I am wrong others can correct me. I am not sure about GMC trucks.

black with a black wheel is correct

really? Damn... I just paid big bucks for a green steering wheel and horn button. It really does look sweet. Well, I'd still like to find the correct green paint for the manual column... that matches the green steering wheel. I'd like my column to be green, like my non-tilt column is.

Also, any idea on the 700r indicator for the column?

take the stteering wheel with you to an autobody and paint store they should be able to scope it and mix the correct matching color

There is an indicator - I can't remember who makes it - try Brother's or LMC.

For linkage, look at LOKAR. They have a sweet and simple single rod linkage setup. Frizzle has it on Tubby the 'Ho.
