Default Flaming River Steering Column
Yeah, the new column is here and it looks great. 30" long almost perfect length and mill finish stainless (I am thinking about black powder coat finish) The quality of the part is excellent, it is wired for turn signals, emer. flashers and a horn. It has a 3/4" 36 spline shaft, I ordered the aluminum universal joints and are a high quality part too.

I have not had a chance to install but a quick test fit looks very good. I need to fab the upper & lower mounts. Flaming river has mounts available but they are expensive, approx. 70.00 each.

the part number for the Nostalgia Roadster Column is FR1999VTR 30" or 33"
it cost 399.00 (this is a NON TILT column) The turn signal handle and button for the flashers is included. And the plug in for the wire harness that allows a outside wire harness to plug in is 15.00. The alum universals are approx. 75.00 ea.

I will post photos when I have a chance to install the column. But I think this is going to be a very popular part with Cobra builders.
Regards, Karl
