Yeap, van column is your best bet overall for fit.
You could always fill the shifter hole.

I shoved a columm out of 73 - 87 C10. You need to bang down the collapsable shaft to keep your distance from steering wheel. I actually even switched over and used the key/ignition as well gaining the locking steering wheel for basic anti-theft.

Re: 1964-66 tilt column help
Yes the van columns are a good fit. One source for van columns that I discovered a couple years ago, is motorhomes. I have a neighbor that dismantles old neglected/abandoned motorhomes. Trouble is most of them have been Dodge chassis', but a couple have been GM chassis'
