John, I agree wholeheartedly with your claim regarding the hybrid
structure of the type 3; but as the owner of a '71 fast, you should know
that the engine and transmission mount not to the pan/tunnel, but to the
body (with the exception, if I'm remembering correctly, of the nose cone
mount on the trans).  The earlier type 3s have the trans horns, and
could be transformed easily into one of the drivable pans of your youth.
