I Jumped In , Order flat-O Gene ,  I found a good Rebuilt C4 for $200 .. which gave me a big leg up.. even C4's can be hard to find..  going to use stock column  $725 + $60.00.. Gene sells a arm that can use ..  its a beater now ,,interior is nice .. getting ready for spring .. 
takes a 11 INCH  Torque converter , I need a 360 / 390 starter .. My Buddy Dan is a real car guy has a lift.. 
I need to drive line extended .. 
  
Big question.. looking to add power steering next year ..looks like mid fifty does that .. 

I could get this truck pretty close for around 10.. K .. reasonable amount.. over all .. ballpark
