Datsun 1200s used a steering column that is integral with the Steering Gearbox. Most have a simple tubular column, but GL models were fitted with a safer Collapsible Steering Column — as in all modern cars.

[edit]
Overview
If your column, as seen under the dash, is a simple tube, it is the standard kind. But if it is dimpled, it is a collapsible column.
Safety Column (collapsible type)
All North America 1200s, GL models in Japan, and newer Australia utes, were fitted with the collapsible safety column.
