is like trying to find hen's teeth..... I converted my 82 to a 4 speed.... but just continued using the original auto /tilt column. Took off the auto shift lever.

x2, I couldnt find a 4 spd tilt , just make sure you know what year you get one out of, the keyed ignition part is different on some years,there are two different ones and they dont interchange if you need to buy a replacement (they are available at the auto parts store)I think 73-79 are the same electrical connections...and have you had a tilt come loose ? you can tear into them and then use locktite on the four screws that keep it tight
