Wow a lot of hoops to jump through. My 66 shovel has power steering but is not original. But it works great. Maybe I have a Jeep gear box. I bought the car 95 % finished so I I might never know. Love watching the progress on your 66 shovel project car. Ken

Thanks for your kind words, Patty feels pretty good and just has one bruise on her lower leg, the air bags did not deploy. I don't own a Beetle, my wife has had 3 beetles over the last 15 years or so. We are down to one vehicle for a daily driver, the 72 Chevelle Convertible is currently for sale on consignment in Florida at Past and Present. I have a 1985 Trans Am that I have had since new, (not going to drive that in the snow) All the other cars you see me work on for Meldrum's Monster Garage are my friends or mostly Mikes.
