Thanks guys, I think you are right and I am going to do all of these.

My dad is very sharp with decades of experience but he's not an car restoration guy.

I know you guys will walk me through any priming issues.

Oh ya, I showed dad a youtube video on oil priming and he walked off saying "you'll end up doing this anyway and then you'll have to get the truck towed to a shop!"
