I would like to use my stock steering column. Is their a collar made that will cover the location of the column shifter?

68? stick or auto? You will need parts from a floor shift column ie: upper bowls to replace your shift collar and the shift tube is different (has arm for linkage) You'll have to move your neutral start /backup lights switch either way. It might be cheaper to find a good used column.

It is a 3 speed manual, 1967.
