[63 & 64 Bowties]

If you're going v8 and want cheap, shop around for an early 80's 2wd pickup that has a rough body, but still runs good. Around here I know you can still pick them up in the $5-700 range. That way you can actually hear them run and drive it before you buy it. And, you'll have everything you need, engine, trans, radiator. When you're done with it, take it to the crusher and get back $100 or so.
