I need to remove all trim and interior and for sure any help with the engine, transmision and suspension would be appreciated. I am not clueless when it comes to these aspects but would like to cosider all possabilities any info is much appreciated I am sure I will be posting often, for help and of course to show off.

My advice for the moment, if you are seriously going to restore that rig...buy a Factory Service Manual and read it.

I'm doing the same thing, except to an 86 Turbo pickup. Let me know if you want to bounce ideas around. I've got a post with mine, and what I'm doing. Take a look, might give you some ideas.
