Thanks for the info. I'm understanding there to be an adapter kit for the later flathead motors into the earlier chassis/driveline, which I need to research. I also found a '52 that's in a running Crestline that would probably work. It could even sacrifice the brake system, too, I think. Now I'm trying to piece everything together from a budgetary perspective on parts, then I can figure out the rest. The '52 might be kind of fun to drive around, too, so that could push my Vicky out even further! I've got too many projects as it is.....
