A few years ago I bought and shipped a 1970 Volvo 1800E to a friend in Chile. Hugo really likes the car, but wished it had power steering. There is no hydraulic power steering available for the P1800, 1800E or 1800ES cars. Some owners have evidently used power steering from late 145s. I deal some in used EPAS units and the required electronic converters, and shipped the parts to Chile.

The pictures below show the installation in the car. Hugo is very pleased with the result. The EPAS parts are hidden under the dash.
