79 NON tilt steering column shifter housing (auto trans)
I'm sick about this...was rebuilding my non tilt column. It fell off the table and busted the auto shifter housing. All I can find is the dang tilt one. Who sells the non tilt shifter housing?? Really wanna finish this job without so much hassle! Thanks!

Re: 79 NON tilt steering column shifter housing (auto trans)
JB Weld it back together. When I had my Caprice Wagon and changed it to floor shift, I ground off the nub for the column shifter and JB Welded a piece of metal in. Ground is smooth and painted. No one knew the better.

No way jb weld will hold and look like it's supposed to. Only as a last ditch effort

As a last ditch effort maybe. It busted completely into 2 parts. I'd hate to put bit together and it separate later
