It was designed to not have power steering, hence the giant steering wheel to give your puny arms a chance.

I would say wheel cylinders leaking like no tomorrow is your biggest death probability. Second would be carbon monoxide, third gas explosion, fourth truck rolls over you while you are trying to fix 1 2 or 3.

My concern is that and wheel bearings. 50 year old grease and oil is not a great lubricant anymore. Any contaminated grease will ruin bearings, then leak out.
