[ADVICE] '68 /6 P/S conversion, unsure where to start

What I have:
-68 Valiant slant six auto
-3 on the tree reverse cam and turn cam broken, shifter has a lot of slop
-Wheel is crumbling
-manual steering (edit)

What I want:
-New or refreshed parts that will last
-Comfort when driving, it's a cruiser and I live in the city.
-Bolt-In, I'm not interested in doing any modifications if I can avoid it. I will pay for new or pay to rebuild.
-keep it column shift, I like seating 6 in the car when I go to the drive-in (edit)

What I was planning:
-Borgeson 999065 kit $1000
-Found a saginaw bracket kit $100
-bolt on crank pulley $75
-Flaming River custom steering column (estimate $800)

What I don't know yet:
-If the flaming river can be made to P/S length and just bolt up to the borgeson kit
-Am I an idiot?
-replacement/whole rebuild kits for column shift steering I have been unable to find
