....'Just thinking of all the headaches we "tune it by ear" types would be saved if they offered steering columns as this in 1968!

No more jumping in & out of the car with a half-inch wrench and a screwdriver!

...And imagine how much shorter Rob's helpful posts could be! ("Hey, just advance the lever on the right, stab it & see what happens!")

Tim,
I have seen this before, but never in this light!!! Wow, just when we think that we have it al figured out, we reach back and see that we are behind the curve.

Wow, adjustment of timing at the steering wheel!!! I am speechless! And way less boring and wordy!!

...Boring and wordy? You?? Not at all, Rob.
'I Just found it an interesting feature at a recent auction we attended.

We had a '29 Model A, and a lever on the steering column was the adjustment for the timing - advance or retard.

Have fun - Dave
