Default C2 Resto Mod Steering Column Options

Looking for opinions on Steering Columns for 63 resto mod?

I have used Ididit and really like the column however their Tilt/ Telescoping is way too long?

Other options??

Thanks

No, both are just tilt. I can't imagine needing a telescopic column. You will set this column up to your optimal seat position for your height then make the shaft from the end of the column to the steering box the appropriate length.
