Default Tilt Steering

I have heard that tilt steering was not an option on 69-72 Novas. Is this true? I have seen numerous cars with this option. Was it factory?

I thought that 1973 Nova was the first year for optional tilt?

From what I've seen, '73 was the first year it was available in the Nova. However, those columns will retrofit into the 69-72 models. When my '70 was restored, I opted to go with a tilt column and am glad I did.

Will a tilt column for a 69 Camaro fit in a 70 Nova? Especially the electrical connection? I have heard conflicting rumors.
