1968 GTO Resto-Mod

[1968 GTO Resto-Mod]

the original power steering gearbox appears to be in reasonably good condition.
it worked fine and did not leak when i shut the car down for disassembly, so i see no reason to break it open right now.
i'll remove the rag joint when i decide what to do about the steering column and shaft.

i have read about upgrading the internals for a faster ratio, but no one here in town does this work and i do not want to send it off in the mail.
for now i'll just go with the original equipment and keep it in mind for an upgrade later on down the line... once the car is back on the road.
what do you think?
is this a sensible approach given the circumstances?
thanks for your thoughts!
