I acquired all my engines except the Carryall by word of mouth. Ask a lot of people, keep ears open. The 4BTA in the Carryall came out of a P-30 type step Van. The Potatoe Chip type delivery trucks used a lot of 4BT / 4BTA's. It seems like its getting harder to find engines as they have become so popular for swaps and prices have sky rocketed. Many guys have gotten good deals on complete running trucks from Dove Bid www.dovebid.com. Dove Bid auctions off surplus Frito Lay trucks.
Some guys have been able to scrap out the truck and sell the aluminum and other parts and come up with the engine being free.
