Get yourself some catalogs from Speedway,Jamco or one of the other advertisers and decide what fits in your budget. Seeing that you have an enclosed driveline you could use a low hp small block Chevy or hop up the 6! Anything more than that you will have to change the transmission and rear end. The body can always be repaired, just don't get overwhelmed by the mechanicals and lose interest.
