if you used a 79 column, I would think you would need to inquire on the 73-9 group for that....I havent seen anything like that on here myself however.

I put in a steering column from a '79 into my 66 a couple of years ago, and made a little diagram using MSpaint. If you send me your e-mail address I can forward it to you, or if someone can tell me how to post it, I will. personal e-mail is awright840 at earthlink.net

epos, I hate to do this, but if you want it, why don't you email him? He might not be a daily reader, but still be willing to help.

Jowiliker,

You are absolutely right. The family and other projects have kept me from reading for several weeks now, but I did get a personal e-mail from him and sent him the schematics. Hope it helps. If anyone else wants a copy, please let me know. I have switched internet providers from earthlink to verizon, but the rest of the e-mail address remained the same.
