TX FS: 67-72 Floor Shift Tilt Column - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Huskerboy2 · 03-08-2010, 04:45 PM

I'd like to sell off this 67-72 floor shift tilt column. I've had it for years, intending to restore it. It's complete, but really needs a rebuild and restoration. It's got some surface rust, but should refinish nicely. $275 shipped in the continental U.S. Sorry, no paypal. Thanks.

Put me in line, PM sent.

msgross · 03-08-2010, 05:56 PM

in line as well

Huskerboy2 · 03-08-2010, 08:40 PM

72K20, I responded to your p.m.

Huskerboy2 · 03-08-2010, 08:43 PM

Just to be clear, I'm basically selling this as a core. It's not a drop in unit. If rebuilding a tilt column gives you the willies, like it does me, I would pass on it.

If you're that guy who can take a tilt column, buy $100 worth of parts, rebuild it and be into it for $375 or so, this is a good deal for you.

**72K20** · 03-09-2010, 11:03 AM

I'm out. I do sincerely appreciate you pointing out the condition and the skills needed to make this unit right. Although I feel like a reasonable shade tree mechanic, I'm not sure I could do this justice. Thanks anyway and I hope I haven't slowed down your sale too much.

Huskerboy2 · 03-27-2010, 11:25 PM

$250 shipped? Cheap price for a floor shift tilt. Again, I'd plan on rebuilding it. I just don't have the time.

HuggerCST · 03-28-2010, 12:09 AM

You're tempting me & I don't even have a use for it! That's the cheapest one that I've ever seen here, I'm surprised that it hasn't sold.

Huskerboy2 · 03-28-2010, 12:33 AM

I think there are quite a few guys on here who rebuild them. I thought it would easily be worth it, even as a core.

**Gary 70 Jimmy** · 03-28-2010, 07:14 AM

I will you do $200.00 shipped.

Huskerboy2 · 03-28-2010, 11:19 AM

Thanks for the offer, but I can't do that.

**southern parts** · 03-28-2010, 12:12 PM

any damage to the bowl or upper tin? how bad is the lower part of the column pitted ?

Huskerboy2 · 03-28-2010, 12:22 PM

I don't see any damage to it at all. It's got plenty of surface rust. I'm sure it sat exposed to the elements for some period of time. I would definitely figure it needs a rebuild. I'm not sure about the parts for this, but I would imagine it needs new bearings, a new turn signal switch, paint and shop time. For somebody who isn't intimidated by that, it's a good deal. For somebody who could rebuild this themselves, they would be into it for low to mid $300's when they're done. Even in todays parts market, that's pretty good.

**72K20** · 03-29-2010, 04:04 PM

Another PM sent, I'm back in!

mahanian · 03-30-2010, 05:59 PM

Huskerboy2 · 03-30-2010, 09:36 PM

72K20, you're first up. I'm firm on $250 shipped. It's well worth that. I'm not heading to Dallas anytime soon, so no delivery possible. Let me know.

Thanks all.

*67/72junkie* · 03-30-2010, 11:07 PM
