you must be living in wrecking yards heaven...I never see the cars you have in your area. Let me know if you can snag it and thanks
I have a non tilt manual trans A body column but it has the automatic lower section. I know someone that has 2 or 3 more non tilt columns here in Jersey
This one isn't actually at a wrecker...just some guy with about a dozen or so Gbody's...among other stuff. I've heard he wants to start selling to lessen the burden on his two daughters. Hoping I can pick up a few for decent prices.
Case Closed...clean8485 messaged me and he has a column from an Iraqi Taxi and he is only an hour or so drive from my place......
I'm not cheap but I did ask him if his Black Friday or Cyber Monday sales are still on....

i have a 1980 old cutlass with a floor shift automatic and found out the ign switch on a non-tilt is different than a tilt i got everything back together but it doesn't work damn.
oh yeah? a dozen or so Gbody's?what's the story on these daughters?
you need to give us more detail,
did the car start with the old column in it
do you have the correct switch for a tilt column
did you align the switch properly when you installed it
does the key turn
is there power getting to the switch
is the purple wire hot when you turn the key to start
have you tried turning the lower part of the column to the left to make sure it is in park
have you tried starting in neutral
it started once long enough to move it from behind the house and onto the trailer. i bought a new switch because the wiring under the hood was shorted out and the guy at Autozone said they were all the same, the key turns but not all the way, it is installed properly, so far i have had to replace all the switches, then i got a shop manual for it. i also got one for a 86 as well thrown in for free. went through all the trouble to replace the ign key and after i was all done i found the originals in the tool box where i left them 6 mths ago. it is a b*tch getting old and forgetful. the old ign switch fell apart in my hands.
