    Hey just bought a 73 Maverick 2dr. I am having heck finding a steering column. Does anyone know what cars will interchange steering columns? Mine has a busted collar that holds the locking tumbler. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx, chuck

    Howdy and :Welcome:
    No replacements available. There is enough people parting out cars, should not be a problem finding a used one. Post something in the "wanted" section. I would also ask for the door locks from the same car so you wont have to carry 3 keys.
