if you have the cash look for a wrecked truck for the doner drivetrain. a friend of mine repairs wrecks and you can get everything you need for less than you can get pieces. he has gotten dodges for around $5000 and if you bought just the motor and tranny you would pay that and still not have the odds and ends you may need. some of the roll overs look bad but have many usefull parts. if i had the $ i would like to put a 67-72 body on a dodge chassis. i'm talking about 4x4 of course.
