My 2 sales brochures don't mention anything about power steering as being a option. I don't think they did, but I could be wrong.

No they didn't, curious if anyone has converted one using parts from a different donor vehicle

I don't think it's possible as the steering box has the collum attatched to it, i.e. it's a 1 piece unit. A100's were the only vehicle to have it.

Rare optional power assist with a ram was offered.
EDIT: over on Vintage-vans, a member with original assembly line experience tells us about it, and there are a couple pictures.
