It's easy to lose motivation once it's apart... take a week away from it (totally) look at some pics on this website.. (see event coverage thread) and find "your" desires for it. Start collecting parts and do 1 item to the end... Don't start on 10 items (engine, suspension, interior, body etc..) because you will lose the motivation again. I finally decided that my body isn't getting done this year. That means no more buying trim, lights, & other items that aren't needed right now. If the frame is rust free then power wash it, paint that sucker and move on!

Click on my signature for some of my pics.... I just painted my axles today and hope to have a rolling chasis by next week... I'm 5-6K into the project and that's with no paint or engine work! Good luck and go for stock if that's what you like...
I hate to say it but yours looks EASY and doable... compared to my money pit at least!
