Donnie-
I just stumbled across this thread; sorry I'm late to the game. If you're still hosting this thread then we have something in common - a Bebops body. Did you get your steering column mounted? I just did mine a short time ago. You can look at it on my thread here on Club Hotrod: Another Build Thread - My '32

There is steel square tubing structure up under your dash panel. Take the two bottom screws out of the dash and remove it. On mine I bought a Borgeson 7 inch column drop. I made a plate from some 1/8 inch steel, drilled it, and welded it to the square tubing. Check it out on my build thread.
