    The steering column I'm fitting has a chrome barrel with wings top and bottom so I suspect not HZ.

    Early HZ (those built in 1977) still have the chrome barrel with 2 wings.

    The single wing, black barrel type came in for ADR25A in Jan/Feb 1978.

    Yes that's right. I am fitting a reconditioned steering column from the earlier model (hence the chrome barrel), I still have my late HZ steering column with the black one wing barrel. I rotate the chrome barrel but it does not depress for some reason.

    My 4/78 XU3 plated Van I had from 81-91 had a silver single wing ignition and silver glove box lock, but I suppose there could have been variance between plants
