Paul, at least it isn't the Strongarm Steering we had in the 18 wheelers back in the 70s and 80s.
I don't even miss power steering in my 66 GTO.... or power brakes either.
Yeah, I've got manual steering and brakes in mine. I had a hole appear in the front to rear brake line last week and that made me a bit nervous. Tho not as nervous as "The Warden" was, as we had the 2 year old grandson with us. It was his first ride in the GTO. So with that, if you do only one upgrade to the 64, 65 and 66 A-bodies, whether they have power or manual brakes, get rid of the single reservoir and go with a dual reservoir... just for safety sake. That's my next big project this year.
