    Folks, I am working on a 37 Plymouth truck hot rod., it has a, probably, early 60s Oldsmobile steering column. Looking to see if anyone knows what car it's out of...?
    It is telescopic and tilt.
    Thanks.

    Looks like it was subjected to vinyl dye at some point.

    I would say it is out of a Toronado or larger vehicle.

    It looks like Toronado and 98 both used it. The smaller cars used a different one, two spokes.

    W/"Rim-Blow" too? Touchy stuff, 'till it gets used to. Solves the "death-grip" on the wheel some folks have, & funny, to boot. :) .

    Just a guess but it looks like a 66 Olds 98 to me. Or something real close to that year.
