Did a little more work to the '65 this weekend. I did a little trade and go a factory automatic steering column. My lady cleaned it and sanded it and polished all the chrome pieces. I painted it on Saturday and we installed it on Sunday. Lisa cleaned all the linkage parts, I painted and installed those. The shifter works great! I also sanded and painted an original 'deluxe' steering wheel that we picked up from Tony (LILRED66). We didn't have a steering wheel puller so we didn't get to bolt that on, but it looks awesome..Here are some pics...jc
