Like a rack and pinion?

I recently finished a restoration but didn't do an R&P conversion at the
time.  Big mistake.  Pulled it all apart last week and fitted a bolt-on
conversion.  Fantastic.

Thanks to all for the input on getting the radiator out. I'll be taking
the apron off and using a gear wrench on the bolts and needle nose vise
grips on the cage nuts.

I restored the car just a few years ago. It's all new hardware slathered
in anti-seize, and never seen rain, so it shouldn't be too hard to
remove. I just hate the likelihood of chipping paint.

On the other hand it's an opportunity to get at a few other things while
I'm at it.

Cheers,
Curt
