It would have to be aftermarket. Although that's true, it doesn't mean it has to be aftermarket. An older style 12 bolt rear out of a 3rd gen or a 68 thru 72 Chevelle/Monte will bolt in using the right aftermarket control arms and with the correct wheel offset...although consider yourself lucky if you find one that someones willing to let go of...especially cheap! Don't ask me about the offset...(don't know don't care)...I have a 9" Ford that's 53 1/2 " wide end to end.
