Crazy New Project!!!

Hey alls, i am in the process of making this,

outa this

It is an 81 toyota pickup.
I will need all your guys advice and suggestions to complete it though.
I am thinking of putting a gmc v6 out of an s10, but i need an adapter or a junkyard transfer case to hook up to the s10 5 speed tranny.
I was also wondering wat kinda tubing should i use, that is fairly cheap (in price), but will with stand some roll overs?
Im going to keep updating this so stay tuned!

Well to start off with im going to say now that im going to saty with lots of the stock stuff (unless I have to gange it), only because my wallet book is pretty empty , Also this is my "REAL" first build so im looking for any help!

For roll cage, use DOM. It is the strongest, and it really isn't wise to go cheap when your life is involved. For the rest, schedule 80 pipe is strong, cheap, but heavy.
