Old Hotrod Steering
Does anyone know what steering box they used to use on early ford hotrods for the cowl exit steering? (sector shaft exiting thru left cowl)?
I was reading the other day that the reason it isn't used too much is because the steering box was hard to find. Since the advent of the internet it might be a little easier to find, if I knew what was used or can be used.
Come on you oldtimers, help me out here!!!!

The oldies were Franklin.
You can get something similar (if authenticity isn't your gig) from the dirt oval guys, new stuff, built today. Can't remember the name right now, but you'll appreciate it more if you have to search for it.;)
