    Ignition / Key Issue

    Update: I took most of the column apart and removed the gear on the opposite side of the key ignition. The ignition still won't turn. Is there a cam or did something break? And I still can not remove the column. I undid the top bolt of the steering linkage and the E-clip around the bearing...

    New T-Type Owner looking for advice

    It is a T-type car minus the engine so I would think it could fetch close to a t-type price. I wouldn't consider it a regular regal.

    Yes, absolutely everything works that I can tell including the power antenna. Everything except the a/c and power driver seat which another motor came with the car.
