Everett, My chassis number is 366300617&nbsp; the ignition is a kolb 311 905 
863A<BR>It is a thru and thru, with key. Iam hoping this will be it! I got it 
for an&nbsp;INSANELY LOW price!! Iam going to take a final in a class on Wed. 
and then wait for info from the type3 org, formore ideas. Bob I may need your 
help to remove and replace my ignition. I have ordered a Bently but it will take 
8-15 days, ($79 and some change!!) I was thrilled! am praying for this is the 
right switch! <BR>Jim, I dont have a radio. I think the column replacement is 
two screws and removal of wires from what I can see!! <BR>Rik did you get your 
ignition yet? Iam very jealous of Air conditioning!! And your beautiful 
interior!!<BR>Please advise, TIA Kelleigh</FONT></EM></STRONG></DIV>

&gt;  I think you could put the later
&gt;  model column (45% key position) in your 66?  It wouldn't be
&gt;  "original", but if it's functional w/key/dimmer switch/turn signals
&gt;  I'd do it!  Mike  P.S.  Rik has air conditioning!!!

&gt;  &gt; Hello
&gt;  &gt;  The swap meet i am attending is at 7 am tomorrow AM ( sunday 5/25)
&gt;  &gt; I am sorry for problems mine is exactly like ricks 67 I am sorry for the
&gt;  &gt; confusion., I musta gotten a different view.
&gt;  &gt; Ok now point in question
&gt;  &gt; 1. My blinker arm assembly is very loose, and NOT functional. Do I 
replace
&gt;  &gt; the blinker arm  and base assembly? and this will reduce play? AND fix 
&gt; turn
&gt;  &gt; signals?
&gt;  &gt; 2. My stock ignition is gone. Someone removed it and lost the disc from 
&gt; the
&gt;  &gt; left side of column. I was looking to replace the column/Ignition.? I 
have 
&gt; a
&gt;  &gt; lousy aftermarket ignition bolted to the dash, it is also wired 
&gt; incorrectly
&gt;  &gt; or just not good since it drains my battery if I do not disable the 
power.
&gt;  &gt; I am unsure if I can save this column. I would LOVE to find one.
&gt;  &gt; Any help is better late than not at all..

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.
