http://www.ebay.com/itm/171254356586?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 I was looking for a tilt to fit my 72 and came across this. Any thoughts on price and if it will work. I never bought from BlueOval, does anyone have experience with them.
I have bought from them. I rate them as fair to good. Back when I go my column from them for my conversion to floor shift I could have gotten a tilt as it didn't come from a torino or ranchero. They offered me the option. I forget what mine came out of, but the car was made with and without tilt. 5.0 probably knows what interchanges. That said, the price seems a bit high unless the tilt with floor shifter option is hard to come by.
Thanks for the insight. From my research and everything I have seen, I don't think tilt was even an option on the GT Q. I may be mistaken. The cost does seem high, but I haven't seen one anywhere.
Many vehicles used the same column during that time. If nobody chimes in with the info, I will look back at the receipt. I think mine came from a T-Bird, but I would have to check to be sure.
I have bought a few parts from him and he is a bit on the hight side but the quality has been very good. I bought a front fender,complete steering wheel assembly and a nice set of kick panels all in very nice shape. The Floorshift tilt columns are hard to find. I was looking for over 4 years and finally made up my own. They would be used in the following cars: torino/montego 72-76, ranchero/t-bird 72-79, Elite 74-76, cougar 74-79, LTD II 77-79
I have one from a Thunderbird, it looks just like the other one from my parts car, all the fasteners and everything !!
