Designed to fit your Nova and does NOT require modification to your original vehicle to install. Installs in the same location as the old column. The 1962-66 Nova's can reuse the original under dash mounts, but it is recommended that you purchase a NEW ididit 1962-67 Nova Floor Mount. Using an adaptor, add an aftermarket wheel and the gripping surface will be in the same location as the stock wheel. Call ididit for info on retro-fitting the original wheel to the column.
