Sounds like a kit of parts for your 403 Hal! The basic chassis has barely changed since 1940s, so most later stuff should be able to be retro-fitted.

I like the idea Rob, but could you fit a Chrysler V8 into the engine bay of a 403 ?

If yes, then Chrysler V8 & torqueflite box, would certainly make a more "authentic" addition, without hopefully breaking the bank.
