Re: 1990's steering column in a 51

Those are as clean and slick as you can find.

Abig84, I'd highly suggest walking around a few car shows or cruise nights and studying the steering columns guys stick in earlier model cars or trucks. You will discover that some are obviously swapped but look right and like they belong there, some look kinda ok but out of place and some just give you that what the heck were they thinking thought. Same goes with steering wheels, I saw a near perfect little 53 Chevy ragtop yesterday that had everything going for it until you saw the late model GM something or other sport steering wheel that looked like a total afterthought. Hopefully his special order one off custom wheel hasn't come in yet.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
