Well, My thought was to make it a fun driver that is mostly correct. Since the engine matches the frame, i will probably keep it until it is no longer useful to me. I wish i could make it to the homecoming with the truck, but i know that i will be out of town from 20 april until 2 may for work. I will however make it to something this year so i can meet you all. I figure that the main things i am going to do since it is already driveable and all original is the following. I plan on using as much as possible!
Lower it 4 inches, new tires/rims, repaint, new wire harness, 12v system, disc brakes in the front/new master cylinder, etc. I will probably not do too much to the engine until later when i have more money to rebuild it OR get a new one.
I need to get it finished so i can start using it to move my motorcycle to the race track!
