is a 71 auto the same for a 68? if so, i may have one for ya

**special-K** · 03-25-2012, 06:21 PM

I have a nice complete all original '72 column listed here in the parts board that I just removed from my truck to change interior colors. Do you have the non-colapsable column? Mine is complete with lower shaft to make the swap to colapsable a bolt-in deal..

I have a nice one from a 68 with wheel and all. I would have to see about shipping since it is so long.

I have one in disassembled and ready to restore. Can paint whatever color you want

The last 68 I did is on my thread here :http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=501499&page=2

post # 43. The customer just wanted it blasted and painted black to match his interior. Like Special K mentioned, you can use columns other than 68. The difference in 67-68 columns and later ones is that the steering shaft on the 67-68 was one longer complete piece instead of having a collapsible intermediate shaft that connect to the steering box. I believe the design change was for a safety feature so the columns had some "give" in the event of an automobile accident.

I will completely overhaul a non tilt column for $225 shipped. Painted whatever color specified and will also include a brand new turn signal switch of your choice. Either the red flasher knob type, or black "mushroom" type, or possibly chrome knob.

HeavyMetalChevy · 03-25-2012, 08:38 PM

Oh.. Also I believe the later style (69-72) columns had taller paintable shift indicators and pointers.

Not sure about value... $80 plus shipping without the wheel? Only issue i see is the indicator housing is broken. (not the chrome housing, the plastic part behind it) And this is a 67-68 1 piece column. I am not sure where the shifter arm is, but i will include it if i find it.
