64 sleeper
Picked up my wifes dream car for cheep only prob is the body right down to the frame rails (MN salt car). I have the body know how. just lacking some mechanics. The car is a coupe w/171ci 6cyl. Hoping to put 302 in on the cheep would like to find salvage parts for frontend w power steering/ power disc/and full suspension. any ideas of cars w/compatible donor parts that could work. Hoping to build a nostalgic sleeper to blow your doors off

basically you need to convert to 5 lug www.discbrakeswap.com for a 5lug disc setup with the right spindles...
then you need a 5 lug rear, honestly you dont want the classic style power steering system they leak like a sift :P a few companys make a power rack and pinion conversion
