Re: Junkyard Parts Interchange?

As mentioned Van and motorhome steering columns, Vans also for marker light lens and door handles. Lots of GM into the 80s used the window cranks. Radiators from many GM RWD from mid 60s into the mid 80s at least generally fit. Seats maybe-especially if you use the truck tracks-there are posts on what people have used. Square body for disc brake conversions and steering boxes. Engine and transmission SB/BB there is a lot of overlap. Corvettes to 82 used the SB short water pump, but that stuff is usually priced higher. If you change transmission to something non-standard there may be a driveshaft out there, but you would need to measure. Depending on the yard these are bent in handling a lot of times anyway though. If you had a 71-72 then 5 lug wheels from vans and some big cars and of course 2wd square bodies fit. Headlight and dimmer switches from GM late 60s into early 80s mostly fit. There is probably more.
