Will a 1963 big car Tilt column fit a 1962 Bonneville?

I'm no expert, but I'm guessing it would. The reason is that 61-64 Pontiacs with column shifted automatics without tilt all use the same steering column jacket, part # 5679291. Stick shift and console automatics used different parts. Tilt started in 63.

61 tilt
I have a 61 ventura with a tilt column. Are you sure it started in 63? I’m new to building Pontiac’s so I’m not an expert. I have my car in the process of building I’m looking to see if I have good pics of the column in the car.

And of course I do not have good pics of the column in the car. However I have not restored the column. Anyway I have seen 1961 chevrolets and Buick’s with tilt columns. Could someone clarify this? I have no information one way or the other.

1966 Parts book makes it look like 63 was the first year for Pontiac big car tilt wheel. But I would think it could easily be retrofit to a 61 and maybe older.

Thanks! From all the information I can find it looks like my column has been replaced with a tilt. Same color as the dashboard and to me-not an expert-original! Oh well, I like it and it will go back in. Probably not the only”non original part” anyway!!!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
