No, for my Firebird I have 10 bolt GM rears and I swap the whole complete axle assembly! In hindsight it would have been much better to switch to a 9" Ford rear.
I love the old photos! That pic of the guys sitting on the hoods is classic! Can't do that on cars anymore, the sheetmetal's so thin you'll dimple it and even clean shoes will scratch up the plastic painted bumpers.
