Power Steering

rv21350 · April 26th, 2004, 07:34 AM

I just purchase a 1955 olds holiday 4 door hardtop which doesn't have power steering. Does anyone have experience adding it later. Also doesn't have air. Any ideas there.

Thanks for now

Randy

I am not sure about the Olds Power Steering. It depends on if you want to keep it stock for restoration or if you are mor intrested in going with modifications.
If you want to keep it stock you can find parts for the conversion from a junk yard. Call OLD GOLD PARTS 352-542-8085. He will have all of the stock parts for the conversion. If you want to go with a late model box you may have to do some fabrication work.

You will find it hard to locate all of the stock A/C parts. You may want to contact Vintage Air to see what they can offer.

Good Luck

Thanks for your help. I want to stay as stock as possible but this car was purchased not for show but to cruise to car shows, in.

Not sure if I will need the power steering but will use the number you mentioned.

Thanks Again
