Name that part!

[Andy]

Pint to whoever can tell me what this is and where it goes!




It's probably an interior part, and likely to be part of the dashboard; heater blower unit or steering column assembly.

Found it in a bag of bits from the bodyshop, and I've no idea where it goes! Sadly there's no part number on it so I can't look it up on ETOS/ETKA etc - so I assume it's part of a larger assembly.

No idea! But knowing that bodyshop, it's probably off a Ford that was also having a restoration at the time

i am 99% sure it is part of the steering column, where the 2 shafts slide together, will fire etka up now...

[DKnight]

no sign on etka but it defo goes there, there is a recess cut out on the shaft where it sits if i recall too...

i agree with dk, not with his morals but with his part knowledge

[hayesey]

Is it some kind of knuckle duster?

[Andy]

Cheers dudes! Any chance of scribbling on the ETKA photo where it's supposed to go please DK?

[PeteG40]

no - but between two collapsingbits of steering column

Was obvious once I pulled the column apart.

Fits here:

And another shot showing it sticking out the end of the upper section of the column:
