Using stock components, you're going to be dealing with a chunk of metal. Both incredibly heavy to lift, and would require a lot of fabrication to make it hold together.

These guys make a $1900 one-piece fiberglass tilt front end. Shipping could be rough, I'd imagine.

I've seen youtube videos that detail the process of making your own fiberglass front end. Probably no cheaper, but it would be an interesting diy experience.
