Diplomat parts on an A body?

Just curious if anyone has tried this before? I have heard that there is an ex-cop car in one of the yards around me, and the rear end is only about 1/2 inch longer or so. What I was really wondering about is the front end. Would I be able to use the brake setup and so forth on my 1966 Barracuda?


Also, someone is offering me an 8 1/4 rear end that is in "excellent" shape for $150, is that price a good deal?

Thanks.

John
