: Steering column assembly on 69

Car has been apart for quite some time but I am finally able to do some assembly and mockup prior it going out for paint. I am having a problem determining which parts are required for the steering column assembly (from the interior side only). I have the brake pedal assembly installed and it appears it is installed first. Next I have my steering column and it slides into the splined steering shaft on the engine compartment side fine. Now it is a matter of bolting the steering column up.

This is where I have questions. The bolt holes on the steering column brackets are slotted and it appears they are placed on the two bolts hanging down from underneath the dash. I installed the two flared nuts to bolt the column to those two bolts/studs, however, it does not look like the assembly is complete. Am I missing a part(s) here. Can anyone provide any input or pictures? It wouldl be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
-jeff
