steering column question

Hi..... I'm in the mist of building a '32 ford roadster....... I didn't want to spring for a Flaming river column .... so..... what is a column I could get from a recycle yard ....... any help ????? Thanks, Older Rodder

 

Try a late 60's thru eaely 70's Ford truck item... Plain tube, and i'm sure the length can be altered to suit.

48-52 ford F1, is about as traditional as it gets

 

If you want a tilt look for a Vega or Camero. They are nice and small overall but can tilt away to allow us old guys tummy room.

 

Chevy, GMC early vans without the key in the column.

 

Look for the post on here about building a column for cheap. I liked the post, very clear, nice photos.

 

Thanks all..........

 

Also 67/72 Chevy pickup or truck column from a truck that had a four speed.

You do have to modify the steering shaft though as it doesn't have a slip joint below the end of the column and uses a Ujoint in the middle.

This may or may not work
