How about a MB 240 engine/tranny? While not real powerful, those engines will run forever. Also, at least here in the rust belt, they are cheap and readily available from rust outs. And another thing, unlike the later Benz engines, there were many sold with standard trannys.For a nice divorced t case, look to early Datsun/Nissan 4wd trucks, also plentiful and cheap. moT
