68 steering column appearance.
Hi All, and Merry Christmas!
I'm looking at a '68 coupe that is in great condition. One question that I have is about the steering column.
Is this the way it's supposed to look? Not entirely contiguous, but in sections? I have looked for photos of other '68's and I did find one on Ebay that looked to be in a similar condition so it's probably OK. I'm pretty certain that it hasn't been replaced.
I'm not yet able to post an attachment.
thanks for any help.

If you want you can send a picture directly to me. I can respond here or directly to you. I know a little bit about 1968 columns.

Yep, that's the way it looks!
Hi, thanks guys. Yep, That's just the way it looks. It almost looks like it should DO something (like telescope) Not looking at one one before, it does look odd.
thanks again! GP.
