Re: steering column
Actually I think the tilt columns may have been built by Chevy. I'm pretty sure the 78-80 trucks tilt columns were made by GM.

Re: steering column
Saginaw tilt columns were used by GM, Chrysler, and AMC from the 70s to ???. There are a few minor diferences between the column, mostly in cosmetics, but they are so similar that you can even interchange the ignition lock cylinder between the three.
