Body. You gotta look good

I would probably gather parts for the rear AND look for some nice body parts to pick up in the process.. Finding body parts takes a while.

Oh Yeah, I'm beating myself up over which front end to get, what hood, and what spoiler...

So I'm guessing Gears and a TruTrac while I decide what appearance stuff to get

If you have the money to get the rear done all at once, just do it.

4.2 h/c/i costs more than the diff and gears

Way ahead of you

I love having a full shop/tools and the knowledge to do gears myself

I'll probably start on the 4.2 immediately after gears and go for the body during summer.
