Are they hard to get parts for? I would like to swap the auto shifter collar out for a floor shift collar. Anybody know where I can parts for these? Thanks.

I read once that they're Saginaw columns, so parts shouldn't be too hateful.

I used a 71 ny tilt/telescopic in my 65 wagon and even made steering wheel removable-I needed a turn signal switch and as above was stated mopar used gm columns. my column used a 67 corvette ts switch which I got off ebay from corvette vendor for about 40 dollars also look at aap,az o boys. get wiring diagram and match wiring
do you have any pics of your removable wheel set up ? i'm just finishing up a column build for my humpback project using a 78 tilt/telescopic knuckle that has a removable wheel. i didn't bother looking for a floor shift bell. i just mowed off the column shift lever and key switch, filled the holes with aluminium slugs, then turned the bell on the lathe to the factory tapered shape. the hard part was making a spring loaded horn ground switch for the removable hub.

If your column is in fact a Saginaw tilt unit, I just went through the same problem. After days of researching and hunting for floor shift style column parts I gave up and performed the required body work to my stock parts.
