WANTED: Tilt Column

Anybody have a tilt for an auto that's willing to SELL it??
These things seem to be impossible to find!
I almost ordered one from a vendor today,...ouch!
I'm going to paint soon, I need a tilt...anybody?
Not a van tilt but a truck/blazer tilt. Looking for 71-72 yrs.

Have you searched Ebay. I see them all the time, just don't pay attention to what they sell for...

yeah-nobody seems to know that many van parts interchange-the trucks in the junk yards get stripped to the frame(and then some) while vans right next to them still have tilt columns,disc brakes and other stuff that fits our trucks

I think my tilt column came from a 1975 ish van-fits perfect and the wires were even very simple to hook up

tilt's

70short & robertwb, I'm just being stubborn about the "factory" thing. Builders choice I guess.
I realize they fit fine and look right. Just wanted an original truck column that's all. There are some subtle differences betwween them though.
Had I not found one, a van tilt is the next best thing
