What now?

Well people i am kinda stuck. i have a thousand things i want to do to my truck (found here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=438235 )but, i dont know what to start doing next. this is my first attempt at a classic and i dont have piles of money to throw at it so i need to do it roght the first time. as you can see from the build thread i have already got the front brakes/suspension done. now i have a "master plan" of what i want to end up with but i dont know what would be the next "best" step.
for instance;
i want to convert the rear to disc brakes but my back plates are pressed
i want to rewire the truck (probably with a custom Ron Francis set up)
i want the body squared up (rockers etc..and under carriage repaired)
i want to have it painted (color is still up in the air)
i want the rear suspension brought down to match the front (4in springs arent doing it)
i want the 350 stroked to 383
i want a 6 speed
i want new seats (the silverado ones with the seat belt in them and middle console seat for my son)
i want the gas tank moved to the rear
i want a stereo (i have it all planned out already.. i used to be an installer before i enlisted in the USAF)


as you can see there are a ton things i want to do but i am not sure what the best order of business would be. so i am looking to those of you that have a custom rebuilds under your belt to help guide me. Uncle Sam pays good but not that good. Thanks
