Looking for a good used complete 4 speed steering column without any cut wires just something I can drop in and go, don't need the wheel. If nobody here has one what can I expect to pay for one outside of here incase I find one? Thanks in advance
WA 1962 4 speed steering column

I kinda cheated, cut off the column shifter protrusion, counter sunk a patch, filled in with duraglass, painted column and looks good for me....just sayin, saved a little money!!!
If your still looking I have one that was converted that I purchased several years ago since then I found an original one that I'm rebuilding
If interested PM me and I will send some pictures

I have a 1961-62 column with the correct upper parts your looking for. It's not a true 4 speed column. But like most have said
you can make this work. I did the mods on mine before I found this column. Pictures are from my 1962 BelAir 2 dr post. As you can
see from firewall side or interior it's hard to tell. If your looking to make a 100% car I can see why you would need the correct column.

A question to all above, did you remove the 3 speed or powerglide shift tube from your conversion
with the correct 4 speed collar that replaces the 3 speed or powerglide collar
( powerglide column conversion also requires changing the turn signal collar from a 3 speed column)

had no trouble with turn signal collar, think i whacked off the 3 speed arms and made a cover for the down low part of steering tube....but slept since then so don't know if i remember correctly Paul, LOL
The attached file is from a 1961 Chevy shop manual. It states that a 4 speed column has no inner tube or linkage. And knowing GM bean
counters there was only one outer tube to house the automatic and 3 speed linkage. A 4 speed column was empty. The only difference was
the shift collar. 4 speed columns got a Group 4.010 part #3795137 housing. And I'm taking a wild guess here. Pontiac may have used the same
parts since they did share bodies. Anyone who has an old GM parts book may be able to identify the part numbers.
