Engine + Suspension swop
Im looking into the posibility of doing a complete front clip conversion.
Suspension transmission and motor etc.
Is there a prefered doner vehicle or conversion anybody can recomend IE
Mustang 11 front end or dare i say it F body Camaro !
On a budget and UK based so any info of a conversion thats been done would be good.
I guess some people will scream at me for daring to suggest a chevy conversion etc.
But im just trying to see whats been done and appears to work best ??
Cheers

Ive done the 01 -08 crown vic frontend swap on my 64 f100 . Car crafter has a very detailed thread on this swap . It is listed under the 67- 72 forum .
Ive also seen a thread where someone transplanted a shortbed bumpside on to a older crown vic . (drivetrain ,radiator, frame , everything . The wheel base is very close) May try articles .
The 01-08 cv front end swap is straight forward and a easy swap . It may help to post what you are transplanting the parts onto also . Thanks Rg
