as far as the crossmember goes....i found a trans. mount conversion, that welds in, for $27.00 from Yogi's made just for this project. can't beat that. i will be keeping the original headlights on the '50 so i doubt i need those. hope not. all i really need are the absolute must haves to do the swap. i CAN use the wiring harness right? i really wish i could use the radiator but i don't think that even on my luckiest day i could get it to fit under the hood of the'50. thanks for the replies and keep em' comin cause i will not be pullin this until 4:00pm tommorrow.
