I think that you should try to install a steering system from a '68 Olds
Toronado. You would have to replace everything from the steering wheel to
the hubcaps, and it would stick out pretty far forward, but it would steer
pretty good. Make sure that you don't use one from the '71 because it may
not fit.
Anybody ever try this?
