Hi again,

This worked, 3/4" reinforced plastic tubing fitted over pilot bring area of
input shaft and hex socket stuffed into open end snug to end of shaft and a
3/8" drive adaptor to drill.

Guess what? Everything works!!!!! One happy camper and thanks for the
suggestions.

Regards,
Bob

Bob,

Ramon had a pretty good idea with the hose/clamp on the input shaft end.

I assume that the overall length wouldn't be that long.  If you used a piece
of hose the length you need, you could always clamp a hole saw with the same
ID as the hose on the end opposite the input shaft.  That would chuck up in
the drill just fine. If it wasn't too long, it shouldn't twist.

Bob,

The welding and all sounds like overkill to me.
 
Find a piece of hose that will fit over the input shaft and use a hose clamp
to attach it.  Then use progressively smaller pieces of hose, pipe, dowels,
whatever, and more hose clamps, to step it down to something you can chuck
up in your drill.
 
The result would be a FORD kludge of the highest magnitude, AND . . .  
It just /might/ work!
