    For sale is a 70-72(parts book also says 69) Buick Skylark/GS Steering bowl. This is needed if you have other GM A body tilt column and want to use in Buick. It has the slot for gear selector. There is no shift arm but they are easy to swap. Thes are tough to find $100 shipped US

    If it was for a floor shift auto, I would buy it.

    I have known people who have cut off the arm notch and had the hole welded over. Not that tough for a good body guy/ Just an option

    Dave,
    Can you measure & let me know the overall length?
    Possibly able to access the column in your car?
    I have a couple different floor shift bowl + shroud set-ups.
    Not sure which is correct for '71.
    One is 7-3/4", one is 7-3/8".

    Thanks

    Steve, We are way off. I have two both from 71's I believe. One with and one without the arm. Both are for tilt columns just to be sure yours are the same. Both mine are 5 7/8"

    Dave,
    Just bought a complete floor shift column, non-tilt, from another '71.
    Bought it just for the bowl & shroud assembly.
    George N. was thinking they were 6-3/4" to 7" on a non-tilt set-up.
    My conversion broke the budget a long time ago, almost there!
    I'll get it installed & wished I'd held out for a tilt set-up.
