68 rear end question?

[JasonBachus68]

My plan is to make this an every day driver. Not looking for a race car. I am putting a 5.7 lt1 out of a 93 trams am. My original plan was to use the rear end I have but a mechanic friend said that it looked to need new bearings and such because it basically had water in it. I had hoped to use the gears out of the trams am but they are different. As far as breaking the bank, one could say this car already has broken it. Haha

maybe a good running rear axle from salvage yard or craigsList could be installed cheaper???
