Off the top of my head, I would say that the swap procedure for a mustang of similar year would apply (still a lot of work). As for suitable engines, I would recommend getting either a 302 of similar vintage, or you could get one out of a Grand Marquis (Not, as a rule beat on as hard as a mustang 5.0, ) and convert it to carb. You might be able to mate it to a old c-4, depending on the bellhousing/input shafts etc, but I dont know if the 6-cly c4 was different or not. If you go with the marquis motor, keep in mind that its been a bit de-tuned as opposed to a 5.0HO, but you can always swap in what you need/want.
Besides MustangII, theres always something to be said for a classic 4-door sleeper
