Where the collapsible steering column retrofit becomes challenging is the top collar. The ’68-’69 collar has a larger diameter than the ’65-’67.

If an original appearance is important, you’re going to have to modify the ’68-’69 column to accept the ’65-’67 collar. The arrows indicate the difference in retaining-bolt positions as viewed by the driver.
