There are some aftermarket perches that are advertised for 64-66 trucks that will fit with some work. I can't remember "who" makes them but will make a point of looking it up.

Yea, that's them.. They were/are manufactured by someone else, who I was trying to remember. I see the"other" truck supplier, who is NOT one of your SISTERS, picked them up.

Sixty Two,

If you haven't found motor mount stands for your 62 yet, I have 3 or 4 pair available. Yes, you will need to drills holes on your 62 frame.
Here is pictures of some.
