So, yesterday, school was closed, work was closed,
and
Chameleon's new owner was drivng her off. (See the other thread)

I had some time to kill and was looking for a w123 grill
and
hood star for a buddy, so I went for a walk.

While walking, I had a thought. My work truck and daily driver
is too big. It won't fit in my garage. In order to park in a
shopping center, restaurant, grocery store, I have to park
in the lower forty.



Now, you can see, that other's have walked before me
and
I've searched the previous threads on this forum
and
a few other forums, too. (See links below)



So, I'd really like to have a 617 engine in a "smaller work type vehicle" like:

1. a midsize, extended cab truck
2. a 4x4 Toyota 4Runner
3. a 4x4 Bronco

that would be nice (and comfortable enough) to be my daily driver and meet
my other work type needs. Must be able to haul some stuff, pull a trailer, etc.

If anyone has an idea, please throw it this way. Yes, I have already performed some searches on this forum
and others. I'm amassed an entire folder of links; here are some of them. So, if you want to
do some background reading or do a similiar project, the following may help you:
