Anyone have pics of how the steering column mount under the dash on a 69? Someone else removed my column and now I need to reinstall, but not sure how it mounted. The mount towards the top that wraps around the steering column, how does it bolt to the dash/pedal support? Is that a bracket with studs or does it just get nuts and bolt to mount it? Any pics would be a big help.

Thanks,
Olen

I took my column/dash out about two weeks ago. I'll try to post pics up this evening if noone else does.

If you could post pics that would be awsome. Is there some kind of bracket or plate with studs that holds the column bracket to the pedal support or is it just nuts and bolts?

My 69 is not stored at my house but I'll try and get some pictures this weekend for you as best as I can if NasaGT hasn't posted anything up.

Sorry - I never got on the computer last night.

Here's a pic of the column still connected:


You can see the plate wraps under the column and bolts to the support where those white plastic nuts/spacers are.

Here's a shot with the lower dash removed so its just the column and pedal support left:

Note that the bolts for the column plate have been removed - they are on the floor in that photo.

Here's a shot with the column removed:


I think I have some more pics of the column plate and bolts right before it was removed, but they aren't in my photobucket collection. I can add them tonight if you would like.

Hope that helps!
