Newbie to the forum building a C-30 car hauler

Gentlemen, I am sure that this question has been asked and answered many times , BUT ........ I am currently building a 72 C-30 car hauler and I am using a 76 1 ton dually "rocket launcher " car hauler as a donor truck. I'd very much like to use the tilt/cruise column out of the 76 and adapt it to the 72 . Is it a simple task or can it even be done within reason ?

I'm not new to the collector car world but I am a little unfamiliar with the intricacies of the 67-72 Chevys. Other questions ...

Can the frame/engine mounts from the 76 be used in the 72 ? The 76 has a 48,000 original mile 454 and TH400 that I'd really like to use.

Will the bench seat from the 76 ( it's mint ! ) fit in the 72 and bolt up without modification ?

Is there currently a kit to add power windows and locks to the 72 ?

This truck is a 350 4 speed originally , does it have the high hump or the low hump transmission tunnel ?

Thanks for your help and I'll post questions and pics as the job progresses if anyone wants to see them. I've attached pics of the 2 car haulers as they were when I found them and I've also added a pic of my recently finished ground up resto Mach 1.

Thanks, Dean
