I finished painting the steering column (no more orange column, yahoo!) after I repacked the upper bearing. After doing some research on the shift indicator that I have, it looks as if someone changed out the '68 column with a '70-'72, I don't know for sure because the harness coming out of the column is different than what it plugs into under the dash (but it still works) and the fact that it was factory orange and the rest of the trim of the truck is red. And yes, I masked off the shift indicator clear lens for the fiber optic light, it just looks like I painted over it and that's not a botched paint job, its a reflection in the paint.
