I hopefully will be getting started on my SWB in January. My problem is, I'm not sure what order to do things in. Here's what I'd like to do:

Make it drivable first....complete new drivetrain. (but should I have the engine compartment cleaned up and painted first?) Am planning on fuel injection.

Lower suspension and install new wheels/tires. Would like to install all new components on front end when lowering.

Interior

Body mods

Paint

This is the order I'm thinking about. But....the undercarriage needs cleaned up and painted...I'd like to have the frame lookin' good.

Any input would be helpful....this will be my first build this in-depth.
