if anyone out here has a chrome bumper mgb could you please upload or send me some pictures of how the steering column sits in the engine bay. i.e how far it is into the bay and then the route it takes from the front cross member. I'm trying to do a front cross member swap and will also be hangig to the hrome bumper steering rack and column. I'm finding very little details of how the column sits or if the parts are even interchangable thanks
Mike

If you need a Chrome bumper column I may be able to help you. I have a column from an early rubber bumper car which IIRC use a setup more like the chrome bumper cars.
