Very cool swap. Does the rest of the car work too? A/C, power steering, gauges, trac control, ABS, etc?

Did you end up using all the truck brackets and accessories? I have a C5 accessories brackets and also a III truck set. So I am digging through my parts and trying to figure out what I need to swap the car before I completely disable it

I used the truck water pump and crank pulley, then made a mount for the alternator to line up with them
