I am pulling the 3fe/a440 from my clean 62 and installing the 3b/h42 from my RUSTY bj along with a Garrett/Mercedes t3 turbocharger.

I am building a dedicated family daily driver.

The bj has some serious rust issues and a great drive train.The fj has a seriously nice everything except the transmission and side steps.

That is a fantastic looking 62. This should be a really great driver when its all said and done. BTW nice quote in your sig, nice to see some other deadheads on here.
 
Sweet 62. Better bulldog - she looks happy.

Is there a 5 speed in that 60 that's going to be taking up space?

How do the steps mount? Would you be willing to part with them? I could use some for the moment.

Lemme know if you need the radiator core support from the 60.

It is perfect. :EDIT: it is not so "perfect" sorry AL

So far the conversion has been a blast.

I am working out side and the weather is great.

Today I ripped in to the 62 @ full speed for 5 hours.

I managed to get this all done with my basic tools from sears/walmart.


I removed:

spare tire and bracket
skid plates
heat shields ( to be reinstalled)
hitch
drive shafts
battery/ tray
radiator
air cleaner
transfer controls
starter
complete exhaust
gas tank
transmission and cross member
transfer
fan/shroud
cpu
harness
