I really can't wait to drive this car, I sold a 240z (with a small block chevy) and a 98 Camaro to build this car, its been awhile since I've had something fast!

The column came from a early 80's GM box van (I got from the junk yard), I had to weld a nut plate to the bottom of it for a mounting point, I bought a steering column with a steering wheel from craigs list as our truck had a grant steering wheel. I used the same steering box, I took the shaft out of the old column and put it in the box van one (non tilt for now). Later I plan on putting power steering on the truck (Got one of Captin fabs brackets!)

Captin Fab sent me a pm telling me I don't need both brackets on my master cylinder so I'll get the CPP one removed tonight! (I should have known better lol!)
Thanks again for the comments!!!
