    I am looking for a tan/saddlewood tilt column. If anyone has one for sale in good shape, please e-mail me at briaboc@yahoo.com.

    Thanks,

    Have a '69 Buick A-body 4spd floorshift tilt in gold/tan. Will have to ck to see how scratched up the upper bowl is. So many times on originals, a big wad of keys has scratched up the upper bowl. Do know it's tight & has correct green tilt ign switch, but no levers (tilt or turnsignal). Those went on a black auto tilt, I just shipped. Will try & clear out some PM space.

    Got Posi?

    Lee , I thopught 69 had the key in the dsah but I guess not . You were going to go with a 4 speed rght . Sounds like the perfect collumn for you . 69 may not have collumn lock

    All '69 GM A-bodys went to key on the column for '69 models. The auto f/s columns had the fishmouth cut in the lower bowl to allow room for the pointer to go up into the guage area. The 4 speed column did not have this fishmouth cut. Will get some pics of f/s 4spd tilt I have & try & post them.

    Got Posi?

    Lee , I might have something coming up that would free up my 4spd stuff , but It will not be cheap . I know its difficult to find and the prices would be close to what I can sell on ebay for . I would advise to to go to Bowling Green to see if you can find a change over . Maybe consider doing an aftermarket set up then you can do a 5 or 6 spd
