It depends if you are going to use it as a daily ride. If so, then a
repower to a V8 or diesel would be the way to go. There is nothng as
exhuberant as doing a ground-up resto on a vehicle because of the
personal touches but, with the cost of doing one vs the cost of buying
one already done, that may be something else to look at.
With my '51 I'm leaning towards the purists. But, if I go with a
repower it would probably be with a late 60's Dodge plant and tranny.
The current transfer case and pto winch should bolt up without any
problems, so I'm told.
