Tuff Wheel fitment on a 70 Charger

Has anyone fitted a Grant Tuff Wheel on a 1970 Charger with column shift?
The dish on the original steering wheel is quite substantial, where the Tuff Wheel is relatively flat.
Is there enough clearance to not fowl on the gear shifter and is there an adaptor required?

You wouldn't be the first one to make it so it's posible.

The adapter fills the regular steering wheels deepness

Phwoar, you're not kidding.
Perhaps I'll find an adaptor first.

I'm talking about the factory/stock one... A/B body, not the E body one. Original used and repros available

Trucks are the same but the splines setup. As far I know truck adaptors are made without the master pline key passenger cars got.

I see.
Being overseas makes it difficult to just drop into the auto parts store or junkyard to check the fit before pulling the pin.
I was hoping someone may have specifically and successfully done the changeover to confirm compatibility of the parts I need.

Floor shifter... column shifter makes no difference.
