Most 71-72 trucks should have all that you are looking for, assuming they are complete, but then your usually in a situation where the truck might be nice enough to fix that one up..... All the parts you have listed (except for the AC) are sold by various vendors for decent prices, and you get new stuff, not used. The AC is sold by vendors, but it usually runs for 900-1100 dollars, from what I've seen anyway. I went to a local junkyard and was lucky enough to find a 71 GMC that I pirated the entire front disk brake suspension and power booster and proportioning valve. I have yet to do it, but I'm pretty sure you can use 73-87? power steering stuff, but you may have to switch your engine pullys to the "long" waterpump length. Someone who has done it can chime in? As far as AC, its so expensive it's windows down for me. Hope this helps ya.

Welcome to the forum. For technical articles on how to add/replace the things you mention, look at the "FAQ" forum. There are pages upon pages of articles on how to do these things with pictures and write-ups.
At the old homepage, there's a list of vendors who sell parts here reasonably priced and specialized for our trucks. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/index.html - look in the top left corner.
