You can find one from a 60-66 truck, or I put one in from a 72 in my truck. Here is some pics of the 72 column in my truck.

A factory automatic column from a '60-'66 Chevy truck is the easiest swap. Also, try to utilize a factory automatic tranny crossmember, to simplify the swap.

There are countless options available, but if you want "ease", this is the best approach. I see them on eBay all the time and in the "Parts for Sale" forum of this site.

Good luck with your project and keep us posted on your progress.
