Default Anyone of a a pre-HE parts car in DFW area?

I'm trying to find parts to convert my propane powered V12 back to gas. I see so many chevy powered Jags. Where are all of those old engines?

Thanks, the car has been converted to run strictly on propane. Whomever did it did a hell of a job as there is now two tanks in the trunk (one behind the back seat and a pancake in the spare well). The computer is gone, fuel tanks, fuel pumps and all of the wiring and plumbing is gone for fuel injection. All that is left is the injectors as they seal the intake.

I'd like to put it all back to standard at some point. Not in a huge hurry because the car runs and drives as it is. It just does not appeal to me.

Check Dallas craigslist - parts cars and full engines periodically pop up.
