Default Is the Steering Column Ruined

Not sure what was done to the steering shaft on this car - it’s a 66 Lemans. I know it was converted from power steering to manual and it has no rag joint - it looks like a u-joint was welded in place of the rag joint flange. Does anyone know if the shaft from the steering box to steering wheel is one piece or is there an intermediate shaft I can source to fix this mess.
Of note, I have the replacement lower bearing and will be adding power steering.
