I know it will not be the most economical thing to run to the Home Depot, but neither is my '68 442......
I use my little '94 4 cylinder Toyota pickup for daily driving. When I want to go fast, I wanna GO FAST!!!!
I really don't want to part either vehicle out, so I think it would be a nice marriage.
My thoughts are:
Beef up the rear end and convert to front discs, then pretty much drive it like my socks are on fire.
