Restoration shop

Bought a 1950 F1 and looking to swap out the flathead for a small block...replace the straight axel with newer frontend/suspension.( truck is neat now but I'm considering upgrade) Is there a newer donor car that could be used with mostly everything needed (mustang?)and is there a shop within 300 miles of Buffalo NY to do the work ? Closer would be a lot better but I can travel it. Thanks in advance to all
