      Steering Column Compatability Question?

      Hey Folks! Does anyone happen to know if the 68 GM A-Body and 72 Chevy pickup steering columns would be interchangeable? Or at least the part that either does or does not have the automatic shifter bits?


      I've got a '68 Beaumont with a column shift automatic that I'm converting to floor shift, and a '72 K20 with a manual column that has a floor shift automatic that I'd like to convert to column shift. It'd be sweet if I could swap parts I already have!


      Cheers,
      D

      Their website appears to be dormant: http://birdsandbowties.com/

      But I found this place from a thread on another forum: www.columnsgalore.com I've sent them an email, will report back with any findings.

      Last Chevelle I helped on the guy put floor shifter in we just cut the shifter lump off, jammed a piece of metal in hole and filled with JB putty and JB weld and repainted it. He only used key switch as new shifter had neutral safety switch and reverse switch.
