I have an 84 BII, stock, C-5 automatic, a little bit of rust, new tires, engine needs rebuilt, leaking oil, exhaust manifolds leaking, etc. I have a chance to buy an 89, which mechanically is better, but needs painted, not so good tires, has the auto/overdrive tranny. are these two mostly swappable far as motors, trannys, wheels swappable?, or should I try to find another 84 and rebuild the same year engine? The 89 really looks like crap due to primer, paint mess, my 84 looks pretty good, good drivetrain, locker in rear end... what to do??
