A 4.6l V8 would be better
Was it imported & does it have English plates already?

think dash is the same, transfer clocks from 1 side to the other.
Steering coloum/wheel same
You move the wipers over a hole & change linkage so it goes the other way.

change & sell front axle, steering box etc as hard to get hold off.

Can’t wait for another nice build

Make sure you register before stripping down.

SIL just stripped a 2B FC & dvla wanted to inspect this so she had to rebuild quickly

Also make sure they get the year of manufacture for the aged plate

The best way is to get a MOT before registering with the DVLA. This way flags up less chance of it being a pile so stolen parts.

I have the correct date on the paper work and i applied for a heritage cert that come yesterday.

But you’re changing the engine & gear box which could affect the reg.
