    hey guys, i was just wondering what the easiest steering column swap that i can do. I have gotten a ron francis wiring system as a gift and i think it is for a gm steering column. i was just wondering what ya'll have run into in your travels. my car is a 1952 studebaker starliner deluxe. thanks

    I'd use one out of a 1952 Studebaker Starliner Deluxe. never been much of a fan of later columns in old cars.

    Why change what you already have ? Those wiring kits can be made to work on a ignition in the dash . I think they go both ways but not hard to change .
    I would keep the column you have in the car now than change to a modern one that will look out of place !
    Just my opinion !

    you guys are totally correct. and what sealed the deal was a 33 plymouth pulled up at my work yesterday. the body looked great the motor looked great the front and *** end looked great. the interior was bearbones and it looked great, and the only thing that i could focus on was the tilt column out of a mid 90's s-10. i had to just walk away. but the original column is going to be utilized. thanks guys...
