Check out this steering column. It's from an early Morris Minor, and the whole column rotates, turning in a bush at the column drop. I mated it to my Anglia 105E steering box, shortening the original shroud to just a few inches long. The Morris banjo wheel will need restoring, but I'm pleased with the way it came out.

Thanks to Ian "Redoxide" Caldwell for donating the column.

The shortened shroud makes for more clearance at the exhaust manifold stud.

Pedals; clutch; gearstick; steering. Nuther tick in the box.
Mart.

Looks good! But how do you reverse a negative with a digital camera? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
