If you have a torch, grinder, welder, and a TAPE MEASURE, then you can pull off a camaro clip pretty easily. I paid around $120 for the whole front clip out of a 76 that was in the junkyard. Just put a couple hundred more and you have a rebuilt front suspension.
Other then that i've heard of guys using volare front clips, and maybe the jaguar front members fit too, I know they work good for the Fo** pick ups

There was a guy in my home town who used to swap mid '70's Monte Carlo frames! It gave it a great stance and a nice ride.
