Most cars, if any, didn't even have power steering back then.

And I recall a few years ago listening to Marcus Gronholm - two-time WRC champ himself - asking his team for permission to drop out after his power steering failed.

Turning a non powered steer and turning a non working powered steer are two _very_ different things. When the power steer fails, it gets really heavy.
