I am scraping together parts for my 68 Satellite that is a 225 ss and I have some questions..
I have a 73 440 w/ a 727 and a K member from a V8 K member from a 70 Charger.
When it comes to the suspension, brakes, radiator, rear end, transmission mounts, etc... would it be best to find a big block donor car?
Also, what cars would be a compatible donor car? I know 68 - 70 B bodies are pretty much the same, but what other years are the parts interchangeable? Thanks for any help provided, This was my first car and I have had it 25 years now and it is time to get started.

Maybe you could post your questions in the general discussion section
or the year specific or other appropriate forums,

this welcome wagon forum section, is mostly just for welcoming new members & a little background, introductions etc.

you'll get far more responses & answers to your questions that way...
yes 68-70 B-Body pieces will mostly all interchange...

we do have a great search function also

Welcome from O.C. California! You have a great car to start out with. We have some similarities - I've owned my 68 GTX for 42 years and had it in storage for about 35 years before I began my restoration about 3 years ago. I traveled around the country, moving etc. health problems finally got me off my duff.

I wish you a lot of success on your project. You'll find the forums more helpful in getting questions answered and finding parts. I'm a newbie to FBBO as well.
