I have a stock steering shaft in the Torino with a standard 3 bolt steering wheel..Any advise on a quick release assembly ?

I bought mine off ebay I had a old grant steering wheel I used wth it.It does make it alot easier getting in and out for sure specially when I have to get out of it in the trailer.

That's the one I bought too..It has to be welded to thw shaft though..Was hoping someone made one that was splined and attached with the nut.

I could swear I have seen a bolt on style for a stock column/shaft, but don't remember where. If this will see any street use using a steering wheel quick release isn't the best idea IMO.

I can weld it on.

No street time for this one, you will also make it a habit to damn sure make sure its locked in place before a run.
