Gaining Knowledge

As I am getting ready to start my project, my main area of concern first will be suspension, brakes and such. I will have a bare chassis to work with, will bead blast & ...

Info need...

When getting suspension parts, is there any certain place to buy good complete suspension rebuild kit? Cheaper and better to buy individual pieces? What brands? Where from? And then brakes.

What I want out come to be... I very dependable, drivable vehicle. It will be mild restore of chassis and body, hopefully trip deuce stout 292, will probably stay with 3 on tree for originality, although new motor comes with 4 spd.

thanks for the help
