Steering Column
I am going to convert my 1965 F100 from a manual to automatic transmission, and am considering changing the steering column to match. What years of steering column will fit on my truck.

Tim first you want one that will match the shift pattern of the tranny, secondly through 79.

The column I am purchasing is off of a 72 F-series. I just bought a remanufactured stock steering wheel for my orginal 65 column, and would prefer to keep the steering wheel. Will the one off my 65 fit the 72 steering column?

More or less, I'd rather have the stock look over all. Don't get me wrong, I've seen awesome trucks with various aftermarket shifters and such. I am more into hiding any performance upgrades under a "stock" look.

Tim, could you let me know where you found a remanufactured steering wheel for your 65 ford? I would really appreciate this info. Thanks

I sent my old steering wheel to Johns F-fun-hundreds. They reman ( or have another company reman) steeringwheels. They have a website, www.f100.com that you can order a catalog from, and further order the steering wheel. Also, you can e-mail them at their website for more information.
