Tires aside, PS would be easy to do and I would be surprised if Gerry doesn't have every thing you need. Not sure on 54 but think the cylinder bracket can bolt on using some empty holes instead of weld. If you went the simpler Monroe unit instead of the Bendix then there might be some small fabrication,

On the 55-6 you can stack PS pulleys on the damper and use a second PS pulley for AC. I won't say for a positive fact that stacking is possible on the 54 but Ross would know. Maybe it would take a couple of spacers and longer bolts so worth investigating.

You have the pump bracket you were going to use for the compressor. Not sure how easy it will be to mount the compressor in that bracket -- particularly if it is the revised and stronger 54 pump bracket with the top brace. If you have that version so much the better for PS use. You could use the mount Ross devised for the compressor. Mounting on the right would also help in running the lines down the passenger side.
