Quote: Eric, the column is 1 1/2" it is what I had around here and the bearings were from some other columns I had, as far as the quick release hex goes, that is what the off road shop here had and so far it seams to work OK, I never had a splined one.
mark, I will use white sealer as a base for the orange but I have shot it over buff polyprime and it looked OK as well.
Ron, That color will look great on your truck!
Thanks Mark I think so too.
got a little more done now got the gauges mounted and the shifter is all working now.
i trimmed and fitted the grill material(58 ford) and resined in some studs to mount it so that is now off the list. and I have been working on a rear pan, I will get some pictures later tonight... Ron...
