It depends a lot on your fabrication skills.

"Factory" live hydraulics are not an option, unless someone has replaced the original engine block with a Super A engine block, OR if you have one of the very last As manufactured. The flat spot on the block where the pump mounts simply does not exist on the older engine blocks.

First option is a PTO driven pump. It can either be a purpose-built pump, or a belt-driven arrangement similar to below.

Second option is scabbing an old power steering pump on to the side of the engine and running it off the fan belts to give you "live" hydraulics. This one requires the fabrication skills, and unless you're really good at it, it's going to come out looking like #2 and won't work very well.
