you mean the cruise/turn signal stalk - good luck with that. They are the same one from 1966 - 1970 finding one is next to impossible. I've found three - all broken.

Cruise

Is the turn signal/cruise stalk with tilt the same for Cutlass and big car?

The 1971 - 76 is the same. The earlier ones supposedly are not but..... The best one I found for my car was off a 88 so either the person selling it didn't know or they are the same. I have never confirmed the earlier ones. I plan on being in Lansing this weekend so I will check there.

Smile Cruise handle

I believe the 66-70 ones are all Chrome with grooves in them (at least mine on my 67 is) and I think the 71-76 have a black plastic tip on them. Thanks in advance for checking in Lansing.

yes 66-70 are chrome plastic fluted with a black button, the 71-76 have a black rubberized end to it. But I am still not sure if the earlier fluted stalks were on A,B and C bodies or just As

FWIW, the Parts Manual shows FIVE different levers from '65 to '75, and doesn't list any earlier than '69 (maybe they forgot...):

412341 —*'69 to '75 with no Tilt / Tele
412342 — '69 to '70 with Tilt / Tele, and then '74 to '75 fullsize with Tilt / Tele
408847 —*'71 to '73 98 and Toro with Tilt / Tele
412606 —*'73 to '75 AJ29 with Y78 appearance package and '75 XC
416755 — '74 to '75 fullsize with head restraint package (option AR3)

So it looks like, aside from some weirdness in the mid-seventies, possibly involving that optional signal lever wiper switch, you had one type with the regular or tilt columns, and a different one for the tilt / tele columns, but they all seem to be the same across the model range in the earlier cars.
