There is the question of the 2 tanks (vac and fluid) for the autostick plus the control solenoid, but should be "no hill for a climber". Brake fluid res will have to be fudged in. All the ’66 6V stuff has to be re-done. A MUCH bigger question is the fact that you wind up with a car with TWO different VIN’s. There are 50 states and 50 different sets of rules for dealing with this. Check into it with your state before deciding.

Thanks for the info. I think I'll keep my 68 body on it.
