i bought a tilt column this weekend that is suppose to be from 69 Camaro -

the code on the bottom of the shaft housing is stamped A709S

the reverse lockout lever is correct - as well as the 2 levers for 69 style.

can anyone tell me what the date means ??

Not aware of any design changes before/after then,so if it's for a camaro,should bolt right in.
