Re: 68 C60 will a 6v53 fit

yes RTO-9513... I used the stock front motor-mount location and the rest was dictated...
I will shorten the shifter a bit... in truth the driveline components drove everything else. the intermediate shaft is as short as it can be and still allow it to be removed for service.. and that BIG Rockwell T-1138 Overdrive Transfer case prevented me from sectioning the frame and just using an 8 foot box... as there would be no hope of serviceable drive line angles. as it is the front driveshaft is a LONG whippersnapper and weighs almost 100 Lbs...

I have all the square tube and sheet metal for the doghouse and two other trucks for body parts... I just haven't had time to work on it much...
