    I put a 79 chevy van column in the one i built a few yrs ago.

    Roughly early 70's to 81 or 82 when they started putting the key on the column in the vans work real well.
    Hope this helps, Bud

    classic performance products sells on that they call their economy column but i dont really like mine cause it has a little play in the tilt pins. it does look and work great but i would try a van column fist, it would be alot cheaper. we put one in my dads 59 out of an 80's chevy van and it seems like its going to work great when we get done.

    I stuck a Camaro tilt in my 59 Apache....most wiring companies sell kits/adaptors to get the turnsignals and related harnesses hooked in with little or no problem.
