Which AMC car do you have?

Too bad you're so far away, I need a windshield, and the top part of the steering column-the part with the ignition switch. Some retard did this:

Well I could jerk the whole column and send it. I only have 1 ignition key though ... The windshield would be a bit trickier.

Is it tilt? How much $, do you think?

Thanks for the comments. Just so you are aware, the 86 & newer steering columns are different. They will machanically fit, but the high beam switch and wiper controls are in the turn signal group instead of seperate switches on the dash and floor. So, you would have wiring challenges to change it out with the newer column.

Do those newer columns use GM style wiper and high beam switches then?

1982 AMC Eagle SX/4 Sport -- at the moment just 1K shy of its first 100K -- pretty much my daily driver. Pic was taken before I got the rear suspension back up to where it should be.

Probably so, I replaced my CJ's with a GM version tilt - but my wipers and lights are on the dash, dimmer is still on the floor. I just got my daughters tilt column tonight - it has the delayed wipers and washer wand - I'll check the P/N of the switch and see if it crosses to a GM #

I kinda like the wiper/dimmer controls in the '80's Chevy trucks, I like the idea of converting.

Well then I'll pull the whole column to the first joint, not even sure if the lower shaft to the steering box is there
