Alright... now it's getting narrowed down a little. I've decided to go with a 283 with the three on the column shifting. Now to find the motor and transmission. I have the feeling that I might get lucky finding one in Ontario, as it seems the majority of the stovebolters here are Americans, and may have been less likely to come across the border for their motors. Hey guys... here's a fun one for you... how long would it take for one man (a rookie, but pretty handy), working one day a week, to do a frame off restoration on a '59 Apache? I can't wait for your answers... hahaha
