A search didn't reveal much on how to go about this.
I have a 99 4-door eddie baur 5.0 that I am planning to shorten and put on a 99 2-door chassis.
My $100 99 2-door has no engine trans and would cost $400 to register again from fees and penalties,
and has already had a lot of parts removed, so what might seem easier to swap 5.0 motor into it isn't a good plan, and it also requires california engine swap inspection paperwork, which the body mod plan doesn't require,
the $150 4-door already has current registration. Just saying up front, so you don't tell me to just swap motors. The shortened 4-door looks more interesting and has the short front door which I prefer.
