A body steering column.

I had a fellow ask me if a floor shift column that I have will fit
in his 69 Camaro. Anyone know? I would think at the least he would
have to change out the shaft to the rag joint, but I'm not sure of
any of this. Any help on this one is appreciated guys.

Thanks Mark! I wasn't sure and I am willing to bet others wondered as well.

Actually the column will work in a Camaro without a lot of work. The Camaro steering box sits behind the X-member and doesn't use the shaft. All you need is the coupler flange that bolts right on the end of the column. That flange bolts right to the steering coupler on the steering box. I sold plenty back in day before the secret got out. Here's the flange you will need to make it work.
