CV Swap

Yesterday I acquired a 04 CV police interceptor (complete car minus doors and roof). I KNOW I want the front suspension, but what else should I scavenge before taking the body to the scrap yard for my 1965 F100 build?

Suspension, engine/trans, aluminum drive shaft, wiring harness/ecm, wheels (for moving frame around shop), brake booster................???

What of those parts WONT work for my build, what parts WILL work, and what did I leave out that I need to snag while Im in there?

Rear axle assembly if you want to use it.

I'm thinking independent all the way around with a MARK VIII in the back. Anyone here need a CV rear?

No harm in keeping all of it. I know the short bed truck will mount to the CV frame depending on your fabrication abilities.
