I hear the manual is longer, but how much? Car in question would be a 66.

Also - is a 65 the same as a 66 ? (I know 67 and later is collapsible.)

I'm looking for a solid steering shaft - '66 B body, manual gear.

thanks.

Thanks - that will help my search for a solid manual steering column. (or just the shaft)
