Okay , I found it . I will pressure wash it this week & can send pic's of you send me your email . It is full of oil & turns , has pitman arm & aluminum mounting bracket. Alum bracket has a crack in it but should be an easy fix. without a steering wheel I were still able to turn it. I will probably regret selling this but oh well my Y model is a big project & probably only hot rod material & this will help you get yours a running.
Cheers

What about a "messaged" "A" or "B" 4cyl? @KiwiTony, I have heard a few "Roush" built "A"'s that were pretty mean sounding.....also heard a really nice "A" in the Great American Race" this year built to model"B"/"C" specs with balanced rods and pistons along with the crankshaft....really a SWEET runner!!!!!

After years of political pressure from Denmark, Finland, and Norway, Sweden converted from RHD to LHD in 1957. Imagine what that entails!

Those Model a type four cylinders are huge in comparison to the little Ford 8 and 10, and longer than a V8.
