Question convert auto into standard

ok i wrecked my 95 dodge thursday, ran into a tree, messed up front end pretty badly, so i whent and bought another 95 dodge for the parts, i was wanting to put my motor into the new one but it was an automatic and all i have is a standard trasmission. so how hard is it to make it into a standard, or sould i cut the frame off both trucks and weld a new front end on my wrecked truck?

should be easier to swap trannies then weld frames, all you will have to do is swap parts.

Yeah I wouldn't weld the frame at all unless you have a lot of experience with welding frames, and even then I don't think it would be a great idea. Having both trucks would make the swap a lot easier IMO.
