Well, that depends on what you want to do with the car? Restore it? Swap in a new engine? I have a complete 301T (from an '81 so I'm not sure it's what you'd want) that I'm trying to sell if that's the route you want to go. But shipping might be painful depending on how far away you are. There's a member here by the ID jjr that is a 301 guru. I'm sure he can help you decide and with technical details.
