I've been working dilligently on my truck for a month and a half now. Scored a good used tailgate, used running boards, and a few other pieces on ebay, as well as a set of four stock 16" steelies with caps, trim rings and brand new bias-plys. (Not pictured yet...sorry)

The truck is drifting towards stock, which isn't where I originally intended for it to go, but what the heck...you can always change it, right?

Check out my pics.

Good progress! Is it running? I'd keep it stock for a while, and see how you like driving it, before deciding what to fix or change. There's a lot of bang for the buck to leave a full resto for later and just drive a work in progress!

Thanks! Yeah it actually runs great...it has a leaky water pump but other than that it's great. The only mods I'm going to do before it gets on the road is headers and duals.
