For git the fact I don't like ya never know i mite like ya son,,, to train yer son this would B about as EZ a fixer upper as i know of.
At one time i got to were i could drop a V8 with a automatic and change out the rear end in a day on these old chebby trucks,,, if the front end was off,,, fenders and hood
A 57 chevy car rear end will bolt up to the springs (other may werk I had a stash of the 57's) enny chevy car 6 or V8 and automatic will fit. No power house needed,,, a 307 will do.
You will need to off set the engine a little to the right to clear the steering box,,, if you plan to use the OEM box

My dad died in 1990 and had a 5 window that was completely restored original,,, all that it needed was the bed installed. My BIL ended up with it and sold the bed,,, best bed and fenders i have ever seen, he wanted a stake bed,, dum arse. to this day its sits were my dad left it in a shed,,, No bed. To make matters worst I did the swap on his 50 for free,,, next week he sold it. 1/2 a turn or 3/4 it would not matter to me,,, I had rather have the 3/4 are better enny way,,, take a Flore shift over a column enny day.
