"If your getting a lot of play then I would suppect the center steering arm is bad and needs attention"

There is a short arm that seems to attach to the frame and them to links to each front wheel, does seem to be a certain amount of play in this assembly although have not yet had it in a shop to get checked officially.

Having driven the car a few times I guess I gotten sort of used to how it steers, but even considering age there is a difference between the 40 and my 48 which isn't exactly new either.
