I think that pretty much all you can use would the front suspension (either in parts or use the whole engine cradle and suspension). Grab the powersteering gearbox as well if you don't already have PS. May consider using the brake booster from the 78 if you don't have powerbrakes. Also, if the 78 has a front sway bar, grab that and its brackets...

That may be pretty much it for the bolt in stuff. The rear end one the 78 would be nice to have if you want five lug, but it is a leafspring rear and your 68 should be a coil rear (unless it is a leaf rear end)....

I may be missing somethings
