    I am looking for a non tilt steering column for a 4 speed 1970 GS.

    I have one here - Not 100% sure what year it's from but I bought it for a '70. I'll be in the shop later & can get some pics.

    Dano, The column in my car is from a 1971 and the threads are different so the turn signal lever that I bought doesn’t fit. If you have a 1970 lever that you could try in the column that would work. Thanks. Marc

    I have a non-tilt column that I am finishing up on restoring.
    As far as your threads go,most of them used a sheet-metal threaded screw,but some used a machine thread. That was up the the person assembling the column. Sometimes if you rotate the screw backwards,it can find the original cut in the threads,and go in much easier. Otherwise,you will basically be cutting the threads again. It can be a little finnicky sometimes.
