Both Ididit and Flaming River offer Column assemblies but they also both want $$$$$$$. Could maybe try E-Bay or Craigslist. Worst comes to worst, I am located next door here in Ontario. Get ahold of me and I can ask a local yard owner that has stashed a lot of the early stuff. I have a call in with him for my Monte so I can ask if he has a steering column. Just let me know if it is shift on the tree, or on the floor. Only thing here is that it may not match for interior color so you may end up having to paint it. Just so you know ahead of time.

If I could I’d give you the one i have. But you can rebuild it or have it rebuilt. Check out this site. I used it to redo mine.
And these guys have everything you need or you can have them do it. https://www.columnsgalore.com/

Just finished speaking with my primary salvage yard source and he has one. Issue for you is that it is column shift and no tilt. Did not get a price on it because no point unless you think you can use it as either a complete unit or for parts to recreate yours. Lemme know.

I came close to find a column today but the firewall mount plate (if it's the name for it. was rusted away from it. I found it as I was about to pull it. Would of been a '86 tilt column shift. Shame the of the 5 G's at that yard it was the only one that wasn't smashed or cut out from under the dash (why cut a good column in that spot?). There's gotta be a good one out there someone will find for you.

Can you post some photos of the damage.

Attached is the repair Kit from Rock Auto that will work for you.

The Saginaw Steering column was used multiple years (decades) and all manufactures including Chrysler.

You might try <junkyardpartslocator.com> or call them: 1-336-506-7449

IAAI
has an 80, and 84 up for bid. Current bid on the 84 is $425.00.
