Default This Ol' Blind Hog Found Another Acorn..I Think
Been having problems figuring out how to get the steering correct on my '26 Model T Coupester using a Ford steering box...finally gave up and started searching all the sites for a smaller/better one..
Finally paid of with a find on Craigslist just stating parting out a '64 Corvair...
I grabbed the steering box, complete column with emergency brake, etc, as well as the steering wheel for $50!
Had to drive about (60) miles one way to get it, but real happy !!
Patience (and being very low on funds) does pay off again
Cheers,
Bob

As you said, patience. Now if I could just teach this virtue to my Girlfriend...

No, being slow is not knowing you're being patient!

Good deal. I paid $75 for an early aluminium box couple years ago.
