Little update: Dropped my engine and transmission last weekend. Driveshaft bolted up. Just need to source torque converter nuts and starter bolts. Wife threw them out after I threw em in the parts washer for a couple of hours at work. She said they smelled nasty.
Still waiting to order cab bushings. Once that is said and done i can buy my front clip, which might have to wait till September for lkq 40% of sale.

1. Replaced drivers side lower door hinge and adjusted door the best I could with the alloted time on my hands. The bushings hole was "wallowed" out from neglected hinge pin bushings.
2. Finally bolted on the fender. I just had it on there with two bolts to keep in place. Didn't want to bolt it up while door was not bolted up.
3. Spent 3 hours at the jy getting nuts and bolts. So far i got all the cab bolts,torque converter bolts,seat pan bolt and nuts,seat track bolts.
4. Got rear tank outter filler neck hose (vent hose only) was charged as a radio hose
. My filler neck is good just needed the outer.(flareside hard to come by).5. Pulled the header panel and bumper filler.
No luck with the throttle cable this trip one was stretched and the others were mangled.
Still need the middle bed bolts and all nuts.(wife threw those too)
List of things still needed:
Dash pad
Cluster bezel
Lower dash plastic(the 1 were the fuse cover goes on)
Ash tray
*Bumper (want diesel/Eddie Bauer)
*Headlights (ebay/amazon)
Lowering coil springs
*Hood (tempted for a cervinis)
Billet grille (to customize with the stock grille cutout like I had before)
*Finish sanding and polishing gen 1 Lighting wheels.
Pick tire combo*

Radiator (I want an all aluminum)
*=need asap.
**might not need.
But yeah that's pretty much what I did today.
Next weekend I am cutting the exhaust to bolt it up to headers. Then drain fuel in the tanks, add fresh fuel to lines and blow from up stream. Add a fuel filtera and connect the fuel lines at fuel rail. Loop the transmission lines as I dnt have radiator. Then maybe I can start it up For a few seconds.
