I've seen alot of parts that must be "gold plated" with the prices people are asking... and paying.. I just saw a steering column on there that was at over $250... and it needs a rebuild.. eh oh well

F-1 steering is highly desirable for installation in flathead-powered Model A's



although $250 is extreme.

And they dont even steer that good! I used the Vega box in my 26T on A rails with a hot flathead. Great highway handling with modern steering!

I agree. I have the working end of a Mustang box poking out from under the from under the frame (sort of like the original Pete & Jake 4-bar used - but without the 4-bar) in my lakes modified (with a semi-hot flathead). Not noticable at all - only been asked once in three years about the steering.
