Default Anyone with an orginal interior ?
Anyone have a 74/5/6/7 mid year with the column lock. When you turn the key counter-clockwise, to remove the key, it must align with a tiny painted spot on the column itself. Do or does that painted spot is it, white, Red blue or black ? Thank you for your help. I've looked all over the net but I haven't been able to find a pic of the column ?

My all original '75 with Dark Red (Code 74) has the Chrome with nothing painted on it. As Alan stated, it probably varied throughout production.
