66 steering column clamp
Anybody know where I can buy a new clamp like the one in the picture? This one's usable but badly rusted. A shiny new stainless clamp would sure be nice!

They don't reproduce this item, that I know of. I suggest removing it, sandblasting, priming and painting it. It will look like new. Stainless would be very nice!

Re: 66 steering column clamp
i just use a s/stl radiator hose clamp but like said above just clean up the one you have. I am sure if you want to take the time their are clanmp companies that will make what you need.

Well, it cleaned up nicely with a wire wheel, wire brush and Eastwood Oxi-Solv rust remover.

Re: 66 steering column clamp
You really want stainless? It's just a metal strap. Bend a stainless strap around a pipe of that diameter and drill some holes!!
