First 72 and I'm just gonna go all in.

First things first I've been lurking for a little while just researching while looking for the perfect truck, I love this site and the wealth of information available. My plan for now is to get this truck back into shape inside and out. I looked all over and found rust bucket aftee rust bucket that was way over priced, so much so that I almost went with an 78-87 but I stayed patient and finally come across this truck. It was originally listed on craigslist for $4000 but when I called the guy I was inquiring about another truck he had that was already sold. So I went to look at it and his son had blew the motor up earlier that day. So he told me I will sell it to you for $1500 cause you're gonna need the extra money to build another motor. So I had already been looking all over the truck and found that someone at some time had already fixed the rocker panels and cab corners and did a really good job doing it. I then noticed they just threw a crappy paint job on top of it. So I quickly forked out the money and he signed that clear blue title over to me and little did he know I had a built 355 waiting in my garage for this truck. My plans as off right now are to go ahead and replace the or repair the following:
Wiring harness with a cleaner simpler harness
Molded carpet
Seats all new window seals and rubber seals for doors
Front fenders.
Doors
A/C & heat. It was factory equipped but someone stripped it all completely
Power windows and locks
And new guages for everything

And paint scheme satin silver and black as of right now
Rims something simple and clean
More than likely a ford 9" and I would like to do a 4 link with coil overs in rear
And I'm sure the list will go on and on. I won't go into the underhood yet.
