The truck is a 68 C-20 lwb.

I need to finish repairing the frame stiffened area and then I wnat to rebuild the suspension.

What I have:
Stock springs
Truck arms (a bit fugly, but fixable)
Complete front suspension (less sway bar) from an 84 C-20
Set of acceptable (for now) 16" rims & tires.
$2000 to spend

I would like to get a more "car like" stance and good ride/handling and want to be able to enhance things later without tearing it back to frame again.

What is the best use of the money I have to spend?
