65 230 / 3 speed questions

[ctandc]

Definitely want to upgrade the '65 LWB I'm picking up this weekend to power disc brakes and power steering, as it's going to be my son's DD in about a year or so. Also would like to look at dropping the 3 on the tree and going to a 200R4 / 700R4 tranny swap keeping the 230 6 cyl.

I've been pouring over the search feature here lately, and I'm finding some answers here and there.

Was thinking of trying to find a 73+ truck with a 250 6 cyl and just rob the entire setup.

- Front suspension
- Power Disc brakes
- Power steering / linkage
- Column
- Brackets / accessory mounts to add PS pump to the 230

Anyone done this?

Looks like it might be easier to find pieces and parts than score a complete 6 cyl truck. Seems everybody trashed the 6 to swap in a 350.
