Re: Steering column ?
The '73 through '77 will fit. I have a '73 tilt in my '74 Malibu, and a '77 tilt in my '75 El Camino.
The difference in the '77 column is the steering shaft is different on the bottom end than the earlier years, so I had to get matching parts etc....
So for a direct fit, don't use a '77 column.

Nice...now you have to tell us how you got it apart...did you reuse the bottom end parts from the Chevelle?

Re: Steering column ?
Anybody know if a 74 Camaro column and 74 Chevelle are the same?

Don't know for sure, but it seems like a lot of those parts will interchange. I know its not a steering column, but I used Camaro drop spindles on the front of my 74.

Re: Steering column ?
I've seen that some Nova will interchange but don't want to blow the car apart and not have the right part. Been there too many times...lol

Re: Steering column ?
I know what you mean there. I have been in those shoes. I am sure someone has done that before. I just don't know my self. If you have one from a Camaro you may be able to measure it and compare how it all hooks up. Wish I could be of more help.
