Those cars are about as complicated as one and a half Ford 8n tractors bolted together and every bit as durable.

Yes, do check your steering, but the most frequent problem there is the bushing where the idler lever pivots in the frame; not a big problem to replace.

If column shift, watch for looseness in the shift mechanism.

Without overdrive it is a 55 mph car. With OD it is a 70 mph car.

Lever shocks will probably need filling and possibly rebuilding--$$.
