I have a '69 Squareback steering column, but the ignition switch is bad. 
also, I am picking up another T-3 this weekend, and I do not know what kind 
of shape it is in. If I don't need my column, maybe we could work something 
out.
Check where your column attaches to the dash. There are some bolts and 
plastic pieces that are designed to break away in a crash, and they could be 
getting bad.
