1970 steering column question
« on: January 06, 2016 - 08:53:09 PM »
On last episode of Graveyard Carz when they were putting together six pack Challenger and were working on the steering column, the bottom half of the column tube looked like it was made from expanded metal. Like it was made so the tube can collapse. Well I have a 1970 column and it doesn't look like that. Are the Dodge and Plymouth column different?

B and A columns looked like that never E Body....most likely just another GYC screw-up...
