RON, THE EBAY LISTING IS 250382275568 I WILL TRY TO GET SOME PICTURES PUT ON THE WEB SITE IN A FEW DAYS. THANKS TOM
looks like someone picked up the ball where rick wurth dropped it. only thing this guy doesn't mention is you have to use a 58 or later steering colume or cut your 57 to fit.
I met Tom this afternoon, he has some fine 57's and is providing a good product. All good! Mark
I JUST POSTED SOME PICTURES OF THE PROGRESS OF MY 57 RANCHERO, THERE ARE A FEW SHOTS OF THE RACK SYSTEM. THANKS TOM
Looks nice, I like the blue Sunliner in the background too.
Are you going to make one for manual steering?

I think if you run a non-power rack you'll have manuel steering :002:
YES I CAN SUPPLY A NON POWER RACK, A REBUILT NON POWER RACK IS $60.00 MORE THAN A POWER RACK, I HAVE NO IDEA WHY . UNLESS THIER ARN'T AS MANY LEFT TO REBUILD. SO THE COST WOULD BE $955.00 + SHIPPING. THANKS TOM
Tom,
Is this rack & pinon set up for the 1957 Ford a one time offer or do you build this system ? I am interested in one for my 57 Rancharo. Do you have any pictures that you could e mail me? Are you having any bump steer problems to speak of? Will it require any modifications to the stock steering column?
Pleas reply.
Thanks,
Larry
Tom,
Do you still have the rack & pinon steering set up for the 57 Ford, if so do you have the complete kit to replace my old steering set up? Do you have a instruction sheet that goes with it? what about the bump steer problem, is there any? any pictures of the system installed, how about the steering column, any changes need to be made?
Call me if possible.
Thanks,
Larry Nichols
