my 55' 2nd series rebuild (suggestions welcome!)

lets start by saying i love trading and i started with a 2000 jetta that was wrecked i got for free, fixed all the body work, paint and put a new interior in in it total cost apx 200 with paint, that was traded straight across for a 99 ford ranger 4x4, that was then traded for a 96 toyota tacoma with a chevy 5.3L swap full roll cage pretty much a race ready-ish prerunner then traded that for my 55 (shes not goin anywhere now) so i pretty much got a 55 for $200 anwho the 55~
