NG Kit Car

The steering column itself came from the donor vehicle but I partially dismantled it and fitted a new ignition/steering lock. It was fitted to the car with two tailor made brackets supplied by NG. I also found it necessary to shorten the standard MGB dust cover.

​

Steering Column Brackets

Lower Bracket

I had captive nuts welded into this bracket (not shown in photo 1) so that it is easier to fit the bolts from above the footwell.

​

Upper Bracket

As can be seen in photo 2, this bracket already had captive nuts. Some elongation of the fixing holes was needed to align the column with the dash.

​

Steering Column Dust Cover

The MG lower dust cover was too long so I cut it 1/2" from the upper shoulder (photo 3) and re-joined it by locking the larger cone-shaped piece over the smaller (photo 4) - a perfect fit!

​

Steering Wheel

NG supplied a Moto-Lita steering wheel, boss and central cover with horn push (photo 5). This one is SVA compliant. I think it is appropriate for the car and I like the feel of leather! An NG badge will be fitted to the centre.
