given the minimal changes to the body, I wonder whether the bodies, esp early Mavs like Silver would fit reasonably easily?

[MQ MAD]

Windscreen, front cowl panel (bit under windscreen)
Round 7 " headlights
Front guards, with mods
Front doors,rear doors,wheels,internal window winder handles
Door trims should, havent checked
Bonnet ,altho look the same DO NOT
The hinges are mounted differently
GQ console fits MQ/MK , with minimal mods,ive done it in the ute

I have seen a few GQ wagon bodies on MQ/MK chassis so it can be done. I have not been able to talk to the owners of these vehicles so I don't know how easy it was to do.

Depending IF the bullbar mounting brackets are fixed on the bullbar
IF they are removeable and can be modded, sure anything can fit
IF the brackets are fixed to the bullbar as a simple bolt up,no
MQ/MK bullbars are cheap that cheap that i cant give em away, send em to scrappie

I have got a mate that has an MK (Square headlights?) with at 308 conversion including adaptor plate that he is just about to strip. I has a steel bar similar to an ARB GQ bar on it. I have encouraged him to bring the list here when he is ready to strip it, maybe in the next couple of weeks. It has a bit of rust in the body, the conversion was Engineered in NSW and would need to be redone in Vic so unfortunately it is not worth getting it going at this end as its fully out of reg and was bought unregistered and transferred on that basis.

Anyone looking for a 308 Conversion, sing out.

Kat had a adaptor housing for a falcon motor a while ago, although I think it was for ol OG motor from what I understood.

Just depends if the right one you find your willing to pay the asking price
