I did that with my 65 Notch. Unfortunately, I used a 71, which is a 1 year 
only assembly. It will require a slight mod to the bracket that holds the column 
head to the dash, but otherwise everything else fits. I'd try to find a 68 to 
70 column (the entire unit) if you decide to do this. I can walk you thru the 
swap, as it's pretty easy, and doesn't require any special tools.
