Welcome to M&M Jim . Can you be a little more specific with your request? The column fits right into the pocket of the dash. I have an angle finder and a car here to get the exact angle, but I don't understand why you would need it.

Sorry, let me be more specific. I'm working on adapting a rack and pinion unit to the 68. Currently, I'm setting up the geometry from the steering column to the pinion. The pinion will be aproximately a 30 degree angle from the ground. With this said, I'm looking for the angle of the steering column where it meets the steering box (before it's removed)

This should be an easy angle to determine, but when your car is in the body shop in another state, it becomes difficult.

Thanks,

Jim

I'll put an angle finder on a steering column shaft (engine compartment) for you and get back to you asap.
