Default Steering Column Removal

Hello,

I tried a search, but to avail. Has anyone documented with pictures the removal of the steering column on a C3? Mine is a 75 and I am installing a new Flaming River Column.

Thanks in advance,

Joe

Just pulled my 70', very easy if your the least bit competent. You'll need the key in the ignition to move the interlock lever up and down to access the carriage bolt on the outside firewall mounting plate. That was the only thing I found that was not documented.
