I bought a MINT STEERING COLUMN FOR A 1970 CUDA from MOPAR3401 on Ebay, this have turned into a nightmare!!!!
Short story he send me one for a b-body, or that is what he leter told my :-( I don’t know the year! I attach a picture.
I live in Denmark, so I wonder if it is possible to use the top part of the steering column I received, and fit it on my cuda, because it looks the same!
The thing is that my car now has a flor shifter, but my column, is with the gear shift, and I don’t want that.

I hope somebody can help me!

Thanks

If its a 71/74 b body. I think the top piece would work. You'd have to take it apart to see.  Sorry about your other post issue

Can anybody recommend, a company, that can find good used parts for a 1970 Barracuda, and check that they are ok and maybe get them overhauled before they send them? And are reasonable in price!
On my wish list is a steering column, Dana60, Rally gauge (everything I need to do the conversion).
Someone that can be trusted!!!! So I actually get the right parts that is correct for my car! Because this are expensive parts, and it is very expensive to get shipped to Denmark

The ship I am working on, will go to a shipyard in Florida for 3 mounts  :jumping: in mitt January!!! So I like to know if there are some good places in Florida were I can buy those parts.   :feedback:

Does anybody know this one? He seems to know a lot, and are quick to find a price on a part, but the million dollar question is if I can trust him? :villagers:
