WTB Auto Column... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Canadian694x4** · 05-31-2008, 05:26 PM

I'm looking for an auto column for my '69. Will consider just about anything but would prefer a column from the 67-72 era. Also prefer one not needing to be rebuilt as that is the purpose of this purchase. The idea is I want to install the purchased column (and thus making the truck still drivable) and take the time to rebuild my original.

Show me whatcha' got.

Thanks,

Brian

I have one. I have a nice clean housing, no internals just the housing and shaft and since you are going to rebuild it who cares. The wiring is gone also, they sell those nice and new also. How does 30 bucks sound

billsbowtie · 05-31-2008, 06:02 PM

i have one a little more complete for $45.00 shipped.

Husker · 06-01-2008, 03:10 AM

I have a red one non tilt would work good, wiring complete.

Would you happen to have some pics Husker?

Husker · 06-02-2008, 05:41 AM

It is still in truck but I can go and pull it tomorrow. It is darker red than the dash but th same color as the Defrost vents. I will get a couple pics.

**Canadian694x4** · 06-02-2008, 05:47 AM

Thanks. Pics would be great, plus i'd hate for you to go thru all that work if it doesn't look like something I want.

Thanks,
Brian

Husker · 06-03-2008, 12:01 AM

I have a saddle`71 column from a 71,000 mile truck.I imagine it`s alot to ship to western Canada.

**Canadian694x4** · 06-04-2008, 12:15 AM

What were you guys looking to get for these?

**jerry moss** · 06-04-2008, 10:19 AM

i just pitched a 71 saddle colored column in the metal dumpster at work. i wish i'd seen your post sooner, you could have had it for the shipping cost. i had it laying around for years and couldn't give it away so i threw it away.

**special-K** · 06-04-2008, 04:47 PM

I`ve seen them sell for $75 here.Have you lookied into Bill`s @$45?I feel I`m last in line and would rather allow other offers,first.

**Canadian694x4** · 06-06-2008, 12:32 PM

TTT!

Husker, what were you looking to get for yours?

Tim, I'll be be shipping it to Ontario, Canada (in the East where the Truck is) most likely so if you have pics and a price that would be great.

Thanks to everyone so far.

northerngmc · 06-06-2008, 05:38 PM

I have one in my parts truck and if you are not in a hurry I will be in Alberta in Mid July and will be traveling through Red Deer in late July and could drop it off.
