that should work or if you want new with readily avaliable u-joints, and surf around in their site, they have one with a built in turn signal switch-http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Hot-Rod-Steering-Columns,2042.html

Brett,
People are ignoring you because:
Your posts look like spam. People who's first 3 posts are questions embedded in another thread and totally unrelated to the thread are going to be ignored.
You're stepping off on the wrong foot. You were advised how to get answers and you ignored it. Don't expect much help if you don't listen.
People expect common courtesy. Introduce yourself. Give us some information about your project.
Use English. That includes complete sentences with punctuation and capitalization.

Brett,
First thing you want to do is get your kit identified, in order to do this you need to post some detailed pictures of the frame, front and rear cross-members, firewall, body openings (pay particular attention to shots of the hood opening and engine compartment along with the firewall and dash/transmission tunnel areas). Once we have assist you with identifying just what you have on your hands, we can then assist you in to exactly what you may need to make your kit whole.
Hope you find this helpful.
Bill S.

Brett, concerning the title of your thread, "no one has responded yet to my questions", you posted this on a different thread, with the following title attached to your post:
"hi i bought a kit i'm not sure who made but could use wisdom"

They say they supply "...Parts For Classic Motor Carriages And FiberFab Kit Cars", perhaps they can help you in your quest.
Hope this helped.
Oh, yeah.....I'd suggest you start a specific thread asking for the information you want.....stepping on threads authored by others that have nothing to do with what you need is considered bad form hereabouts....I'm just sayin'.......

Did you happen to read the thread to see if anyone answered your question?
Paul F is right, these forums are like little communities with rules and expectations of courtesy among the members. When one asks for help, it is customary for that person to check back and see if anyone has responded and if so to acknowledge it.
All I had to do to get the aforementioned website was google "classic motor carriages", you could have done so, as well.
Here's hoping you get your project off the ground.....sometimes these basket cases seem like quite the bargain but end up being money pits in the end, particularly when the company may no longer be in business or parts are no longer available. You may have gotten lucky with yours, though.
Cheers from Dugly!!
