4 speed tilt steering column

i know of a place in my city that has a few factory 4 speed tilt columns.i would like to get one for when i convert to a floor shift in ol red.the guy offered to sell me one for 175 he will pull it out and it does include keys and whatever steering wheel is on the column at the time.i know there rare but is that too much to ask for it.ive seen the guy's inventory and there all intact and in vehicles none of the column's are broken.he also has automatic tilt column's for 125 and non-tilt column's for 100 dollars.im not selling any of these personally and im not going to provide the seller's information so it doesnt look like i am im just making sure that he isnt charging more than these parts are worth.also will a 4 spd tilt column bolt directly in place of a 3ott column.

Re: 4 speed tilt steering column

That's more than I'd pay for one, They get $75 for tilts around here and it should go right in place of the 3ot....

the next time you see a four speed tilt in good shape with all the proper wiring intact for 75.00 let me know, I'm looking. I don't even need a steering wheel

yeah i did think that was a little high but this guy who sells this stuff its his own personal stuff he has a small yard in south phoenix its not real big and he sells as needed he is a mechanic of some sort(shadetree)and a tow truck operator by trade.so i guess since he doesnt sell alot of stuff he isnt trying to be competitive with other yards in the area and there is alot of them in that area of phoenix.75 in your area for tilt columns huh is that a 4 spd one if so ill buy two of them for that price.

Re: 4 speed tilt steering column

When I was there mid last year they had a dozen or so squares, When I returned end of last year they had one. They went to the crusher....
