1971 Dart Swinger Worm Gear Adjustment

What boat anchor do you mean? Swapping power steering for manual?

At this point I'm not sure what to do, my wife will probably drive the car also, not as much as I do but I think the power steering has to stay. This is intended to be my daily driver so I'm not looking for steering performance like today's vehicles, I just want to be able to keep it straight down the road and make turns accordingly, maybe the occasional donut or two ;)

I think replacing that steering column might be a bigger job than I can tackle but without quality shops in the area, I may not have a choice. Where should I begin my search for a replacement column? Or can they be rebuilt at the bottom?
