Looking for the 2-piece (upper & lower) steering column surround for an '85 Ranger. My truck has tilt steering, if it matters (I don't think it does). I would prefer them in red, if possible. The Ford part numbers are: E37A-3530 AWA and E37A-3533 AWA.

There are very few First Gen. Rangers left in my area (northeastern IL). So, local pick-n-pulls aren't really an option.

TIA
 
i thought the dash and steering column was almost the same in 80's and 90's

I'm not sure but I do know that tilt and non-tilt steering column surrounds are not the same. There aren't many '92 and earlier Rangers in northern Illinois. Most are picked over and if someone wanted something in the steering column, the surround is usually ripped off and tossed aside.

Didn't know they made a tilt column on 1st gens. Post a pic of it if u don't mind. I'm curious what it looks like.

My 1st gen has tilt. Looks the same as a regular column just has an extra lever
 
But, it also has a trim 'collar' that goes around the articulated joint. Columns without tilt don't have that 'collar'.
Ah yeah. I forgot about that
 
@svtcards wanted a picture of the tilt mechanism/joint in the steering column as well as a pic of the plastic "collar" that hides it. IIRC, that 'collar' is in the grey plastic bag, with the rest of the steering column surround, in the passenger side foot well.
