!975 Telescoping shaft replacement
Need to replace the shaft inside telescoping steering column. ant seem to find part on the usual Zips, Ecklers, Corvettte Central. They all show the lock pin and woodruf keys but not that splined rod itself. Help!

So you actually want the upper column shaft?
Later C3 I believe is the same as C4 'but not' 75! Search eBay for 7829047 that might look like what you're interested in. Some of the rebuilders if you mention the correct year might be able to help.
*** If your column is original '75 it will take someone very familiar with the Tilt/Travel to tell you which might work. Some years it was serviced only with the shaft complete but maybe the upper Tilt/Travel would change. Try eBay mentioning 1975 for telescoping upper shaft and see what happens BUT remember - it will take someone very familiar to actually help you. There's maybe Buick/Cadillac/Oldsmobile that could work!
