Looking great Pops! If I ever do another wagon/pickup, I will go the donor vehicle route you went. When you compare the time/$ to fit modern stuff to an old chassis, there really is no other choice. I have always been in a position where I already had the parts, or the ones that were there were in too good of shape to justify (in my mind) swapping them out. I don't expect a modern ride with mine, but I do rebuild everything with the HOPE of some semblance of reliability. Crap, just noticed the O/D output yoke seal is leaking bad on the delivery...............................
