You got me thinking. I have a 65 D200 with a 318 that I think is about at the parting out stage. I was going to keep it / fix it / sell it, etc, but the snow smashed the cab top and hood in, and the interior's gotten pretty nasty sitting for 10 years, and the tires are all shot. The body's rusted through in a few places too. I already cannibalized a couple small parts off it for the D300. As I recall, it was a strong-running truck back when I drove it. Lent it to a guy who pulled a horse trailer with it for a year or two. The D300 has a good strong slant 6, but do you think it would be easy to swap it out for the 318? Maybe even swap the tranny as part of the package? Do you think the motor mounts, clutch, etc would be easy? I'd fire up the 318 first, of course, and make sure it still runs good.
