Re: Tilt Steering Column restored.

Column looks great. I have tilt column out of a 70 or 71 van it did not originaly have a neutral safety switch on it, but we have since added one, I was wondering if you could tell me were the original harness from the safety switch runs to or hooks up to, and possibly the wiring I need to make it work. Thanks

Re: Tilt Steering Column restored.

I have one in my garage from my 69 I have wanted to rebuild. I will have to save and print those pics for inspiration. Very nice!

Oh, can the part that the gear selector shaft hooks to be ordered? Mine looks like it is going to break were the pin is.

Locked. Double posting is not permitted, and services/parts for sale belong on the parts board, where I moved a duplicate post to already.
