Re: Steering Column ?

Welcome,
A close friend has been in a chair 30yrs....He has a 53 Chevy car but his steering column is out of a early 70''s Nova. The universal type hand controls had bracketry for the stock Nova that worked in his car. I would think a more specific column application would be needed for the controls... can you use the 85 steering column ?
