Buick Axle Swap

[Buickspec6231]

Hello, I am new to the Forum. I have a 1962 Buick Special. I have done an engine swap. I swapped in a later model 231ci V6 with hopes of later finding a Turbo Engine. In order to do this I had to modify the front crossmember, the center link, fabricate a new transmount, new motor mounts, modify the tranny tunnel in order to clear the larger TH350 over the Dual Path. So I have done lots to it, with lots more to go before it is on the road. So far, I haven't found any information regarding axles. The axles now, as well as the front spindles are 4-lug, but everybody knows, all the best looking wheels are five lug. I want to change out the rear axles as well as the front spindles inorder to fit a nicer 5-lug pattern. Does anybody know what parts will interchange or has anybody already done this. I do not want to use wheel adapters to do this, I want to do it right. Thanks.
