I've seen the plug and play units for Mustangs.  It there one made specifically for 57 Fords?

The electric power steering has been used for years in fork lifts.  One of the after market guys is marketing a unit, Ididit I believe, but any of those would require extensive column modifications.  They are in the steering shaft line between the box and the steering wheel.
