Sometimes it's just a good discussion, plus if I can engineer an equally good solution that costs me $150 and some free time then I'm ahead and by documenting it others might be too. That said I may very well end up with one of the two commercial options.
The steering column is from a Mk1 Ford Capri, I do have a spare. The challenge is that Capri's have become collector items in their own right so spares like this and the ignition switch have substantially increased in cost.
Interestingly I came across an EPS system for a MK1 Capri/Escort for sale in the UK, made from the Corsa unit that Doug so loathes.
