Driveshaft for 73 Roadrunner

Hi folks. I just picked up 73 340 Roadrunner that is missing its driveshaft. The car is a 340 witha 727 AT and an 8 3/4 rear. Can anyone tell me what other cars would be good potential donors for a driveshaft? Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure. Are you looking for a "correct" replacement or a serviceable one? Length wise, any 2 door/smallblock/727/8.75 rear B-body should give you the same length. 904 cars might as well, but I'm not sure.

Would the slip yoke from a 904 work on a 727?

Good donors for driveshafts that are easy to find are dusters fury's polara's, coronets. big block or small block the shaft doesnt matter unless you want to take it in and have it lightened and balanced.
By the way just swapped a couple of engines last weekend and the
yoke is exactly the same. just remember the distance from the transmission to the differential is all that has to be met and the splines line up.
