My kid brothers dropmembered C10 build-Leftovers

Ok heres the story. My buddy had a 65 long bed. Motor was suppose to run and it was all there. The city was trying to ticket him for having it in front. He calls me up and we work out a trade for some air bag parts. I get it to my cousins house. It has a 350/3spd, but I didnt want my brother to have a lame column shift. I had my cousin slap on a spare 350 trans. I didnt want him to have a lame long bed either so I sold off the bed. I bought some short bed sides. I drove it home, missing the bed. I didnt like the chevy grill so I hunted down one. Th ad read gmc grill, bbw cab, bed, parts. I figured I would look at the cab, but I was there for the grill. I ended up buying the whole 62 I am working on.
I have been collecting parts for a K5 that I will hopefully finish this year. The 62 will be stealing the Tubular arms, rear end, spindles, and bags. my rambler is giving up valves, compressors, and will be sold off to fund this. I figure I can get this one done sooner, since it was drivable at one point.
I found a dropmember and ART arms for a decent price. Parts came up missing, dropmember was bent. Lame dude gave me the run around. Paypal claim and credit card claim filed.
I waited for him, but I had to get this thing going. So I am going to steal the hardware, and steering stuff from the K5's dropmember.
So I ripped it apart over a week ago, but the rain has preevented me from working on it.
