Hey everyone, I'm dealing on a manual tilt column that I'm told is for a truck. I only have these two pictures, what's an easy way to verify if it came from truck?

It doesn't look like it has the correct half moon signal wiring end that these trucks have. That's Wierd cause the vans these came in were all automatic that had that wiring end unless it was changed at one point

That might be a '68 Corvette column. If it is, it's worth a good bit.

However, the the turn signal switch/wiring could have been replaced. Pretty common.

Does it have 2 rubber grommets and metal ring?

I've asked for more pictures. Other than the two pics I don't know much else about it lol.

The knob on the tilt lever looks suspect- same style knob used on '73 and newer square body trucks.

Yep, that’s also the tilt handle style from all the motorhome and vans up into the 80s.

If you can get a pic of the firewall side, it may reveal if it’s a converted auto column.

Depending on what you’re paying, none of this may really matter. If it’s cheap and not sloppy loose, get it.

He's going to send more pictures, but yeah I think regardless I'm going to buy it. Price is pretty reasonable.
