Hello from Delaware

[Sonic40]

Hello, I recently inherited this 82 from my wife's grandfather who passed. He bought it new. I'd like to get it back to its former glory. It's mostly been used to haul sticks and leaves, other than that it just sat. It currently has a 250 6 cyl. in it that is running on 5. The body is straight, just a bunch of rust and a few holes. Lots of plans for it, it'll be daily driven.
I already have a Mcgaughy's 4.5/6 drop kit for it and I think I've decided on a small block 350/ 290hp crate motor from Jeg's. Hopefully I'll be ordering that in the next few weeks. I've never done anything like this before but I'm sure I can find out everything I need to know on here.
