[68GMCCustom]

Well....after pulling my '68 and the '72 apart...the '68 body is finally on the '72 chassis and the truck is up and running now, with some of the electrical working. I need to finish installing the front clip and the interior and then its coming home!

Its not the cost of a conversion harness but time I'm fighting to get the truck home. Its my driver and since my Z isn't licensed/inspected/ins...I'm anxious to get it back home. So...rather then waiting through another weekend (I plan on having it home before the end of the week) I am considering using the connector off the old '68 3sp column to wire up and replace the van connector, so I can plug into the '68 interior harness. It looks like its a straight through pin-out, any reason I can't make my own? And who knows, maybe I can even take a connector apart and feed the wires into the other connector type?

I realize there is value in the '68 steering wheel....but is there much value in the non-tilt 3sp column or the non-tilt auto van column? I'll be replacing it with a non shifting tilt column anyway in a few years when I finish the '68 chassis's rebuild and join it back with its freshly repainted '68 body.
