You would probably find a Saginaw box in something like a 70's Blazer. There are brackets available for the frame from places such as Advanced Adaptors. You can build your own of course.  Here is quite a bit of info on the conversions from our friends at the early CJ5 page.

Any 80's truck, older cars (60-70s). Very easy to find. The one on my jeep came from a '72 pontiac grand prix.

Find an 80s Trans Am or Z28, faster ratio.
