Steering

The entire steering column  gear box, steering wheel, shifting levers etc had all been removed.  These parts had to be pulled, cleaned, and painted and otherwise figured out.  The Gear box had been shipped out for factory overhaul at Red Head and was ready to go. Everything else has been packed up as is when we moved out of Everett.  I didn't have much involvement in the removal so this was just a bit challenging.  Some of the original parts were put in only after cleaning and further restoration may be in order.  For now I needed to be able to turn the wheel and have the tires turn. There is lots of stuff in and on that column (like wiring, turn signal, horn switch) that is not needed right now so it will come later. I can steer it now.
